Tomas to present “Hip Hop and Homophobia” and “ISIM” at MBLGTACC 2009

On Saturday Feb 14, 2009, Tomas will present “Hip Hop and Homophobia” as well as “ISIM” at the 2009 Midwest Bisexual Lesbian Gay Transgender Ally College Conference at Indiana University-Bloomington.



Even though Tomas has presented workshops and performed in the area on several occasions, this will be the first time that he will present at the conference.
About the workshops Tomas will present:



Hip-Hop and Homophobia – This very popular presentation explores the images, lyrics and messages of homophobia as found in hip-hop past and present. It also exposes the audience to homo-hop as LGBT artists struggle to find their place in today’s hip-hop. This interactive presentation engages the participants, encouraging them to share their attitudes and opinions in a safe environment



ISIM - Racism, Sexism and Homophobia, Recognizing and Understanding the Connections
: This very popular presentation challenges participants to take a very personal look at their own "isms”. Participants really "go there" sharing their attitudes towards race, gender and sexual orientation. They explore the words, actions, attitudes of themselves and their world.
