Dear Friend, Our annual Creating Change conference is less than a month away – and I need your help! Each year I have the opportunity to speak to activists, students, faith leaders and staff and volunteers from progressive organizations about where the LGBT movement is going. I'm preparing my address for this year's conference and realized something was missing – you. Your ideas and passion are what make the movement possible. You and the hundreds of activists who come to Creating Change are the heart of our community – and of the fight for LGBT equality. And even if you can't attend the conference, you are still creating change at home. Learning about what you're doing to create change will help me give the best speech about our movement. So tell me – how are YOU creating change? Here are three easy ways you can tell me how you're creating change: 1. Take a picture with the downloadable PDF that reads "I'm creating change by…" and upload it to Flickr to show how you’ll create change in 2011. 2. Share a video story on YouTube to let us know how you'll create change at home. 3. Submit your written story about how you'll create change. Your stories and ideas will help me as I draft my speech. Your photo or video may be shown at Creating Change and will fire up everyone at the conference. You can still register and join the more than 2,500 activists who will create change in Minneapolis February 2-6. Register online now. With your ideas and activism, we'll create change – and equality.
