PALM BEACH, Fla., Aug. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --CBD is seeing monumental demand in Europe. The growth of the CBD market in Europe is growing because of the adoption of CBD infused productsin industries such as pharmaceuticals, personal care, cosmetics, nutraceuticals, along with medical applications.In particular, legalisation of medical cannabis, and decriminalization in some countries, has led to a significant decrease in black-market activity, as people are shifting to legally purchasing cannabis for medical as well as recreational use. The legal cannabis industry continues to expand around the world with major contribution to the market coming from continuous legislative victories inNorth AmericaandEurope.InEuropealone, the market is on course to grow 400% over the next four years, according to the Brightfield Group report.Another report from New Frontier data supports that projected growth in a report that said 46% of Europeans view CBD favorably, and up to 77% of surveyed respondents also believe CBD should be accessible in some way.

According to the Orian Research Group, the current market size for CBD in Europe is about 450 million representing 31% of the global CBD oil market share, second only to North America with a market share of 40%.

Europe's CBD Market Projected To Grow By 400% - PRNewswire

Posted in Cbd Oil | Comments Off on Europe’s CBD Market Projected To Grow By 400% – PRNewswire

Anyone Heard of CBG and CBN? – PRNewswire

Posted: at 3:57 pm

CBG and CBN are two of more than a hundred rare cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC, CBG and CBN are both considered non-psychoactive, meaning they won't make you feel "high." But they do have unique benefits and effects that can enhance the CBD experience when taken in conjunction, which is known as the "entourage" effect. They are also quite effective as stand-alone products.

Korey Stern, CEO of Goat Grass CBD, was motivated to explore the possibility of other highly potent cannabinoids in the cannabis plant after seeing the myriad of benefits from CBD not only in his customers but in his own household. "We've seen CBD products manifest real results in our own lives," he explains. "They've had positive results on my fianc's nausea during pregnancy and my dog. There are dozens of cannabinoids at our disposal that can benefit the body in unique ways and serve a healing purpose for optimal health in our lives."

Before we explain what CBG and CBN do, let's talk about how they work. The endocannabinoid system in the body is made up of receptors that help regulate physiological processes such as pain, mood, sleep, digestion and more. Phytocannabinoids like CBG and CBN bind to these receptors and interact with them in a beneficial way. So CBG and CBN can enhance natural healing effects in the body, helping it to do what it does best.

CBG is proving to be as or more effective than CBD in connecting to those receptors in the body and touts promising results in treating glaucoma, bladder and bowel disease, and slowing the proliferation of cancer cells. Early research also shows CBG may help patients suffering from fibromyalgia, arthritis, migraines, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease. It's also been known to increase mental clarity, focus and energy, and help with depression.

CBN has primarily been used to help with sleep but is also showing great promise helping patients suffering from epilepsy, pain and inflammation. It's also known as a powerful antibacterial agent that could help in the treatment of MRSA, which is usually resistant to traditional antibiotics. CBN has shown benefits for patients suffering from ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's disease) and other neurodegenerative conditions. It also helps to stimulate appetite and is touted to aid in relaxation, tranquility, and sleep.

According to Stern, producing an effective cannabinoid product is the result of a closely orchestrated process that includes safe sourcing, standardized manufacturing, 3rd party testing, and timely distribution. Many other companies don't bother to reach those higher standards. "Goat Grass stands out from other cannabis companies because of its commitment to transparency, quality and consistency above and beyond the standards of the under-regulated cannabis market," says Korey.

Stern goes on to explain that Goat Grass takes extra regulatory steps with each product they sell. And while CBD, CBG, CBN and other cannabinoid products are federally legal, that doesn't mean they're strictly regulated by the FDA. "Third-party lab testing and other self-regulating actions are critical to keeping our customer safe, so they trust the industry," explains Stern. "The only way to be certain about what's in a product is to look at the product's COA, or Certificate of Analysis. These documents are from independent, third-party labs that guarantee a CBD product is what it says it is, and we always include COAs with all our products."

Goat Grass CBD has taken a bold step in the cannabis industry with the release of their proprietary CBG and CBN Oils which they have spent that past several months perfecting through in-house Research & Development. This is a step most other CBD companies won't take because this process is expensive and time consuming. However, this investment of time and energy is what makes Goat Grass products unique in the industry. CEO Stern made the decision because he wants Goat Grass to be at the forefront of the cannabis industry and all its possibilities. So he partnered with researchers to manufacture the most effective cannabis products possible. "CBG and CBN products are definitely an underserved part of the market," he says. "Other companies rely on copying existing products, quick branding and CBD's growing popularity to make a quick profit. But what they're missing out on are the unique healing properties in these specialty formulas. This is where our custom formulations and in-house manufacturing work to our advantage in the competitive landscape. Since Goat Grass already has the framework in place for accountability from extraction to packaging, we can easily implement formula changes."

The New Frontier

Goat Grass is also on the research frontier of water-soluble CBD, CBG and CBN products and nano-emulsions. These breakthroughs could dramatically change the CBD industry as we know it. Nanoemulsion involves the use of ultrasonic waves that break down the CBD, CBG and CBN droplets into dozens of tinier droplets, or nanoparticles. Since these nanoparticles are so much smaller than regular droplets, they can travel through mucous membranes in the mouth and esophagus thresholds that the droplets in oil are too large to pass through. By traveling through these cellular membranes, nanoparticles take a shortcut into the bloodstream, bypassing the internal organs where regular oil droplets go to waste.

As a result, nearly all the active compounds reach the bloodstream to produce active effects, with no waste. This means the maximum beneficial potency of these cannabinoids reach the bloodstream more directly with faster-acting effects. The fact that they're water-soluble means they can be dissolved in a beverage and consumed on the go. According to Frank Horwich, a researcher scientist who works with Goat Grass products, water-soluble products could skyrocket the industry to a new level of consumer convenience. "Water-soluble CBD, CBG and CBN products mean more of the benefits are immediately available to the consumer and they allow for more consistent dosing. They give the consumer a lot more power to choose just how they want to utilize their CBD, CBG and CBN and they can have it in drinkable products on the go. Plus, they have a longer shelf life."

Stern is also developing several "seed to sale" partnerships across the U.S. to streamline the company's supply chain and ensure 100% compliance and reliability. He's also looking at new CBG and CBN products like topicals and edibles all while adhering to his steadfast commitment to transparency, quality and consistency plus superior customer service.

ABOUT GOAT GRASS CBD:

Goat Grass offers a healthy, all-natural alternative to health and wellness products including all-natural, full spectrum CBD oils (for humans and pets), gummies, capsules, topicals, and other cannabidiol products that deliver powerful benefits. Goat Grass CBD offers the industry standard in product quality, safety and consistency.

A Beginner’s Guide To CBD: What It Is And Where To Find CBD Products In Hong Kong – Tatler Hong Kong

Here's everything you need to know about CBD (cannabidiol) (Photo: Courtesy of Heavens Please) By Helen Yu August 24, 2020

We chat with Denise Tam, founder of Hong Kongs CBD lifestyle brand Heavens Please, to learn more about her brand and why CBD can potentially benefit our health

The buzz around CBD (aka cannabidiol) is picking up momentum in Hong Kongs beauty and wellness scenes and it shows no sign of slowing down. For the unacquainted, CBD is known as a chemical compound that can be found in both in both hemp and cannabis plantsone of the hottest trends in cannabis that already made evident by the headlines in America a few years ago.

Often touted as a magical elixir with a wide range of applications in personal care and food industry, CBD comes in many different forms, including oils, balms, serums, and even gummies, beers and coffees. Youve also likely been hearing its many wonderful health benefits... but how exactly does it work, and does it even legal in Hong Kong? We talk to Denise Tam, founder of Hong Kongs pioneering CBD brand Heavens Please, who shares the story behind her brand and tips on how to incorporate the powerful ingredient into our wellness routine.

Youre not only the founder of Heavens Please, but also the co-founder of Oh CBD BeerAsias first CBD beer brand. What drove you to start your businesses in the CBD field?

I had always been interested in plantstheir magical and therapeutic uses fascinate me. My partner Terry and I came across the genus species Cannabis Sativa and we learnt about the entheogenic use of cannabis. I was experiencing anxiety and depression at that time and I found CBD especially effective in alleviating these symptoms. We then went on to do more research and started introducing CBD to our friends and families, and we have also seen great results on everyone in improving their quality of life.

After investigating local laws and regulations, we decided to bring CBD to Hong Kong because it is a wonderful compound that we see great opportunities in making peoples lives better. As the world and the public has an increasing awareness of sustainable living and steering away from traditional pharmaceuticals to sought for a more natural alternative way of healing, we think it was the right time to introduce phytocannabinoids to Hong Kong. We all need something to elevate our stress and cope with what is happening in life, it was some of the most difficult times we endure here back in 2019.

What are the biggest myths about CBD?

One of the biggest myths about CBD is that it is not a cure-all. CBD and other phytocannabinoids can work through our ECS (endocannabinoid system) to balance our bodily systems and help us adapt to stress, but there's no such thing as tuning your health back to homeostasis immediately after using it once in a while. CBD has to be consumed with an appropriate amount continuously for maximum benefits, just like any kind of health supplements.

Also, for people who are dealing with serious health issues, they should always consult a doctor and remind themselves not to be over-dependent on CBD. We love CBD's powerful benefits, but it should be treated more as a tool to understand and improve our own wellbeing

What messages are you looking to promote with your brands for CBD?

We aim to promote the inclusive use of plants through our brands, to help modern-day people to reconnect with nature, learn to make conscious lifestyle choices and nurture our body as a whole, including the spirituality. We're also hoping to promote that all plants are equal in value, that they can heal us and provide most of our daily necessities and essential nutrients when being used correctly.

Raising the environmental awareness of the public is another goal that we want to achieve through promoting the use of hemp-made products like clothes, paper, plastic and building materials. Hemp is the only plant that can provide all our necessities while healing the planet, and we hope to transform and elevate people's wellness ritual while bringing more positivity to the world.

Here's everything you need to know about CBD:

What is CBD?

CBD is short for cannabidiol, it is a chemical compound found in hemp or cannabis sativa which does not induce a psychoactive high. It is one of over a hundred other phytocannabinoids that are present in the plant. Another most well-known one is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is psychoactive and can be counteracted by CBD.

CBD carries a wide range of therapeutic benefits, which can help reduce sleep disorders, managing anxiety and depression as a neuroprotective agent. Extensive scientific researches also show that CBD can benefit patients who are suffering from Alzheimers, Parkinsons, epilepsy and cancer. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and skin-soothing properties, CBD is also an effective and natural treatment for improving skin health, which is especially good for acne-prone, sensitive skin types.

Is it legal?

Yes, CBD is legal in Hong Kong as long as it does not contain THC and CBN (cannabinol). According to several official government press announcements, CBD is not classified as a dangerous drug and is therefore not controlled under the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance.

How does it work? Are there any side effects?

CBD and other phytocannabinoids work through ECS, a system which exists in all mammals, including humans and animals (this includes our pets, too). It plays a crucial role in regulating our physiology, mood, and everyday experience. The research on cannabis led to the discovery of this previously unknown biochemical communication system in our body, where scientists also recognised the receptors that respond to cannabis, as well as the endogenous cannabinoids released in our own bodies that bind to these receptors. This further suggests that ingesting CBD can activate the receptors to boost signalling, meaning it's safer than most pharmaceutical drugs on the market when treating anxiety or other conditions.

There are not much-known side effects when using CBD, except relatively minor ones like nausea, change of appetite, drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth. However, when using medications that have a grapefruit warning, you should avoid using CBD as it may induce unwanted effects through medical interactions.

How to choose the right CBD products?

When choosing CBD products, you should first identify your concerns and select whether to use a CBD oil, a vape, or topical product or other forms of edibles. You can then decide on the concentration you need. For example, you can select something that starts at 300mg to treat mild symptoms, and you can go up to 1000mg under severe conditions. But take into consideration that if its pure CBD isolate, broad-spectrum CBD or when there's a botanical formulation. The ingredient can work differently and produce different effects.

Generally speaking, a bottle of CBD oil refers to a volume of 30ml. When calculating dosage, divide the total concentration of CBD by volume and this will yield the dosage per ml.Daily dosage for normal concerns ranges from 10mg - 50mg for a person, but it varies depending on your metabolism and sensitivity.

For skin concerns or the need for localised relief such as pains and aches, it's better to use topical products as they can be targeted to specific areas. Unlike oral CBD products that require a longer time to take effect (as our digestive system needs time to fully digest them), topical products can be massaged directly into the skin, thus providing fast relief and cooling effect for sore muscles and joints.

Resilience CBD Thrives as its Military Veteran Founders Promote Inspiration – California Herald

Posted: at 3:57 pm

Resilience.

The Merriam Dictionary defines resilience as the capability of a strained body to recover its size and shape after deformation caused especially by compressive stress, or an ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change.

Resiliencethe founders of Resilience CBD know a little something about it. A former Army Captain and a former Navy Seal came back home after deployment and were faced with both mental and physical major changes. They felt fatigued and anxious, experienced inflammation and pain from workouts, and had decreased stamina. Plus, they found it more difficult than ever to focus on their workoutsor just focusing, in general.

See, the stresses and traumas experienced while serving had their effects on the two. But they were determined to not feel defeated. They were determined to push themselves. Because the two veterans wereand aregoal-setters. Just like professional athletes and others within the fitness community, they were used to setting goals for themselves.

Even if they were small goals, they knew that simply moving forward was the key to healing and growth. Growth towards what? CBD Resilience believes in the potential of humans to crush their goals and strive towards unthinkable achievements.

But the stresses experienced while serving are not things that are easily overcome. The two veterans decided to try an alternative remedy to help them: products infused with CBD oil. Not expecting much from it, they were delightfully surprised when they found that CBD helped them. Not only helped them, but paved the way for their healing.

It helped them recover. It eased their pain, allowed them to focus more, built their stamina, reduced their inflammation, and eased their anxiety. They began developing their own CBD products, sharing with other veterans who faced similar battle scars. They also received the mental and physical benefits of CBD: relieving their stresses and soothing their anxieties.

It helped make them resilient. This is why, in 2019, they decided to create Resilience CBD. Because the two dedicated fitness vets wanted to conquer their own, personal Mount Everest, and since CBD-oil has helped them, they wanted to help other, everyday athletes to do the same.

Jerry Falwell Jr. Officially Resigns From Liberty University After Day of Confusion – The Daily Beast

Posted: at 3:57 pm

Jerry Falwell Jr. has reportedly confirmed his resignation from Liberty University after a day of conflicting claims over whether he actually had any intention of leaving his post. Initially, the school announced that the religious leader had agreed to leave in the wake of several highly publicized personal scandals. However, hours after that announcement, Falwell told several new outlets that he had, in fact, not agreed and had no plans to leave the university for good. But, in the latest development, Falwell confirmed to ABC News and the Wall Street Journal that he submitted his resignation letter to the school late Monday night.

Falwell, a strong supporter of President Donald Trump, was placed on indefinite leave earlier this month after a photo of him with his pants unzipped surfaced. Falwell has apologized for the photo, which he said was taken at a costume party during a family vacation. Then Reuters published an interview with a former pool boy who alleged he had a seven-year sexual relationship with the 58-year-old and his wife.

Growing entrepreneurs is a way to grow the Mon Valley – Observer-Reporter

Posted: at 3:56 pm

A wave laps up on the beach, the surge pushing waters against the wet sand. It is a rhythm that is quite predictable. Even little children find it easy to distinguish the areas where their feet will get wet from places where the effort of building a sandcastle will not be wasted.

Like a child on the beach, I can recognize areas in our communities where we need to build and our efforts will not be wasted. Meaningful change happens one person at a time, neighbor to neighbor. The solutions to many of our most entrenched problems are likely to come from the bottom up, not the top down.

When communities choose to recognize things that reinforce their values and beliefs, the results can be powerful.

Recognition, appreciation, encouragement, praise. These are all simply business words for love. It not only changes how others perceive us; it changes how we perceive ourselves.

The Mon Valley has long been representative of the working class and its aspirations. We must stand proud in our culture and history to create our own intentional positive energy. Recognition strengthens communities and attracts resources.

Our merchants and consumers can plant the seeds together for a sustainable economic future for our communities. While we can create sustainable economies, the reality is we must work for a larger social change if we are really going to solve our problems.

Like any good local resident, I love my place. I spend a lot of time thinking about what the Mon Valley could look like in 10 years. I know it must include a commitment to sustainability, and address equity, diversity and creativity to ensure our long-term resilience.

We need to nurture a vibrant and diverse sector of locally owned retail shops and restaurants, while planting seeds for manufacturing and production businesses. These businesses are key to keeping and growing family-wage jobs, and to preserving our cultural identity and community vitality.

We have the opportunity to be a leader in reimagining what the American small town of the future looks like. If our local businesses, entrepreneurs, communities, counties, and other public and private institutions work together, in 10 years we could have multiple, thriving business districts from Elizabeth to California.

It is imperative that we create opportunities for local ownership and meaningful employment, especially for our low- to moderate-income individuals with less typical skill sets. We must build our regions long-term resilience, and celebrate the Mon Valleys unique cultural identity.

One way to fill our empty storefronts is to grow our own entrepreneurs. I can envision seed, a technology, arts and culture business incubator that would offer affordable space and technical support to aspiring local entrepreneurs. This program would help new businesses thrive in those difficult first few years after launching, and cultivate economic growth and community development at the local level.

Our empty storefronts are simply opportunities to build sandcastles.

Storefronts at buddy’s place: These windows in OTR offer a voice to the community – The Cincinnati Enquirer

In the middle of Over-The-Rhine's entertainment district is an art collective made for and by community members.

Some are artists, others are educators andstudents,and some are longtime residents.

The work featured as part of the "Storefronts at buddy's place" series varies from cutoutsto live performances andlight installations.

And it's all housed on buddy's place, a building with 20 units of permanent affordable housing for former homeless residents. The building itselfis recognizable by a giant mural on its side that features sunflowers, people and a sign that says "Over-the-RhinePeoples Movement."

[ Help us create more content like this bysubscribing to Cincinnati.com. ]

buddy's place was named after buddy gray, a homeless advocate andfounderof Cincinnati's Drop Inn Center. buddy did not capitalize the "b" or "g" in his name and buddy's place has continued the tradition.

Storefronts was formed in 2017with the goal to allow residents to produce art shows that address issues that impact their lives, such as development and gentrification in the community.

"For many of us, even folks who weren't here since the beginning, we've always wanted something to do," said Key Beck, an organizer, collaboratorand board member of the OTR community council. Becksaid that Storefronts feels like something theycan do.

On various projects, Beck has served several roles from community member to participant. "It shows you what intentional community work looks like. The voice of the community is always being heard."

Dorothy Darden as part of a series called "Vigils" at Storefronts at buddy's place.(Photo: Storefront at buddy's place.)

The first exhibit at Storefronts was called Vigil. Community members dressed in black stood in the windows with signs that said things like, "We need to support affordable housing," and "Neighborhoods are nothing without neighbors."

The process has evolved over the years at Storefronts.

Mary Clare Rietz, the facilitating artist for Storefronts' art series at Miami University's Center forCommunity Engagement, first would bring the concepts to the community. Since then, OTR residents now work together to flesh out ideas for the Storefronts presentations.

Tony Drummond says he'slived in OTR for 12 years and has met more than 50 people since joining Storefronts. He currently lives at buddy's place and was part of Storefronts' Blink presentation called "Time for an UPdate?"

"I wore a big hat on with lights, and I'm a big man, so I guess I drew a lot of attention," Drummond said. "But we had a lot of educational stuff there, people looked at that and read that. It wasn't just a big light show. People were stopping. People were learning. People were seeing things they didn't know nothing about."

[Hello, inbox:Sign up for the weeklyThings To Do newsletter. ]

June Alexander has lived in OTR for more than 20 years and saidStorefronts reminds her of the Harlem Renaissance.

"Without that expression that ability to say, in a healthy way, what's going on with us and have that support there would be other things going on," Alexander said. "This is what people need to see. Grassroots people, people in your own community, must have supporters."

Student involvement differs for each project. Sometimes they help with facilitating conversations or gathering props. Other students design posters and artwork or create costumes for exhibits.

Students from Miami University as well as the University of Cincinnati's College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning have also assisted with projects.

"The good thing about working with the students is that they're often involved in different portions of the project," Beck said.

"It's kind of a good partnership between students who are working in this kind of environment from an academic perspective and communities coming from the experiential perspective and together we have a unified goal of representing something," Beck said. "It's more like we're doing work with the students and working together."

The summer art project was bolstered by Black Lives Matter protests happening in Cincinnati and across the nation.

"With the powerful emergence of this most recent movement for Black lives and all of the other storefronts being covered with wood and then art," Rietz said. "Some of us decided it might be a good idea to have art in our windows."

This current series will feature several single-artist shows for the windows, rather than the usual collective approach.

Dionna DeeDee Flowers created the art for the first installation of BLACKLIBERATION. The second part of the series will premiere on Aug. 28as part of OTR's Final Friday art programming.

"It has been a very moving experience for me to be a part of this movement," Flowers said. "Whether they be rich, poor, professional, street person or whatever, what have you, Over-the-Rhine community folks, new ones and nostalgic, this is getting us together and getting us to communicate with one another."

Re-Centering the Margins: LGBTQ Humanist Alliance to Hold Second Annual Summit – The Humanist

Posted: at 3:56 pm

The inaugural Centering the Margins summit, hosted by the American Humanist Association (AHA) and the LGBTQ Humanist Alliance in March of 2019 brought together BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, people of color) LGBTQ humanists, atheists, and freethinkers.The mission of the LGBTQ Humanist Alliance is to cultivate safe and affirming communities, promote humanist values, and achieve full equality and social liberation of LGBTQ persons. In pursuit of this mission, the alliance works at the national level to build a thriving network of LGBTQ humanists and partners devoted to compassionate activism. Through grassroots activism and events such as Centering the Margins, members of the alliance work to raise awareness, advance social progress of queer communities, and build relationships with other corresponding and allied communities.

In 2009 the LGBT Humanist Council formed as a project of the AHA in partnership with the Gay and Lesbian Atheists and Humanists (GALAH). They got their start when local leaders gathered at the World Humanist Congress in Washington, DC, that June to discuss how the humanist community could reach out to the LGBT community and recognize the growing number of LGBT humanists. Their first priorities were to provide LGBT humanists across the country with a forum to exchange ideas on local organizing, find support in coming out as LGBT and as a humanist, and to speak out with one voice on issues of concern to the LGBT humanist community. In this capacity they organized for same-sex marriage and equal benefits for same-sex partners in the State Department, and they protested both the anti-gay papal agenda and the Boy Scouts discriminatory policies against gays and atheists.

Although the name has changed to reflect an expanded constituency, the alliance continues to fight for the rights of LGBTQ humanists and nontheists. We recognize that we should celebrate our wins in marriage equality but also understand that the fight for marriage equality asks members of our community to participate in a potentially harmful assimilation that stretches the marginalization gap. There are numerous LGBTQ rights issues that disproportionately impact queer communities and demand attention in our ever-changing political climate. These include healthcare deprivations, homelessness, and violence targeting queer and trans people. The LGBTQ Humanist Alliance is dedicated to realizing a more inclusive humanism that confronts these issues head on through education and advocacy.

The creation of the Centering the Margins summit reflects the LGBTQHAs commitment, internally and externally, to advance much needed anti-racism efforts in our country. The alliance believes that many progressive movements, including, at times, our humanist movement, demand that people work in silos, that people choose either the room where racial justice work happens, or the room where LGBTQ equality work happens, or the room where secularist work happens.Centering the Margins is committed to creating and maintaining a safe, productive, and welcoming experience for everyone, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, neuroatypicality, physical appearance, body size, race, nationality, ethnicity, or religion. As a movement, we can only succeed if we work as a cooperative, proactive, and supportive community.

The inaugural summit was held at the Washington Ethical Society in Washington, DC. The event featured a musical performance by Danile Rogirs, plenary addresses by Black Humanist Alliance Leadership Council Chair Ashton Woods and the Vice President of Programs at American Atheists Debbie Goddard, caucuses, and more.In addition, LGBTQ Humanist Alliance member Tris Mamone and social justice activist Danna Pope facilitated a White Folk against Racism caucus for White-identifying attendees, while Lucky Garcia and Diane Burkholder facilitated a caucus for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.

The day brought together folx who were engaging in humanism for the first time, longtime activists, and everyone in between while centering the identities too often marginalized in the secular community. Attendees discussed anti-racism, making intentional spaces, secular organizing, and shared stories about what it means to show up as our full selves.

All of the sessions from last year were recorded and are available on YouTube. The LGBTQHA is now in the process of planning their second annual Centering the Margins, but this year the conference will be virtual. Speaker applications are still open.
