Start a Book and/or Film Discussion Group
I’m happy to have helped facilitate the organization of two dozen LGBTQ+ Literature and Film Groups, during the early years of this site. Groups were begun in Canada and the US, Latin America, the UK, Europe, Asia, and Australia. I hope the updated “Start a Discussion Group” resource will help continue that tradition!
Begun 1997 / Updated April 1, 2022
