The image features the title: Getting Bi at the top. Below it is a photo of Robyn Ochs and some details about her biography.

Robyn Ochs is a US-based speaker, grassroots activist, and editor of Bi Women Quarterly and two bisexual anthologies. An advocate for the rights of people of ALL orientations and genders to live safely, openly and with full access and opportunity, her work focuses on increasing awareness and understanding of complex identities and mobilizing people to be powerful allies to one another within and across identities and social movements.  The talk she is giving is on what  it means to identify as bi+ (bisexual, pansexual, fluid, etc.) and what challenges there are to recognizing and understanding non-binary sexualities—the largest yet often-overlooked segment of the LGBTQ+ community.  No matter how you identify, come to this engaging and interactive program if you could use some tools for challenging ignorance, biphobia, and bi erasure and finding bi+ joy. Sponsored by the Lambda Alliance and the GSWS Program.
