<H3 CLASS="js-xd-read-more-contents text-body-medium">We all live at the intersection. Code-switching between authenticity and survival; between keeping our jobs and living our truths. We try to find and create spaces that can handle all of our selves: our blackness, queerness, love for Paramore, hate for white supremacy, or mixed feelings about any number of issues. We invite you to join us at The Intersection!<STRONG><BR></STRONG></H3>
