Because June holds the commemoration of Texas slaves finally learning about the Emancipation Proclamation one and a 1/2 years
after the fact (Juneteeth) and because June is National Pride Month, I'm soliciting audio from black American gays on coming out.
Choose one (or all) of the following topics:

Coming out to yourself (when did you first know?)

Coming out to family (when/how did your family find out?)

Coming out at work (are you out at work? why/why not?)

Coming out spiritually (whatever faith/belief you observe)


You can record the audio on your own recorder/software or you can call the Mandrake Society Radio line at
214-594-7434 (yes, you're calling a Dallas, TX number). Please send your audio (in either .mp3 (preferred) or
.zip format) to: mandrakesociety@gmail.com. Contact me if you have any other questions on finding software
to record yourself.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you and sharing our stories together in the month of June.
