Femme Collective is committed to creating conferences by Femmes, about Femmes, and for Femmes and their allies. This organization understands that Femme is more complex than just being a queer person who is feminine; it is a part of how we interact with and shape our world as queer academics, activists, artists, homemakers, parents, professionals, students, teachers, etc. Their conferences seek to explore, discuss, dissect, and support Queer Femme* as a transgressive, gender-queer, stand-alone, and empowered identity and provide a space for organizing and activism within Queer communities. http://www.oaklandconventioncenter.com/event-details.asp?ID=61 This event is scheduled to start on 9/23/2010 and end on 9/26/2010.
