National Lesbian & Gay Journalists Association

The UNITY Journalists convention has traditionally been a place for journalists and presidential candidates to meet and, this year, NLGJA members will be part of the conversation.
It’s no coincidence that the last few UNITY conventions have convened during presidential election years. The UNITY convention has become an important spot for candidates — including incumbent presidents - to speak to a wide range of journalists.
NLGJA has joined with three other minority journalists associations to be included in the UNITY 2012 Convention, August 1-4, in Las Vegas. This year’s UNITY convention will focus on ensuring that America’s newsrooms and news coverage reflects the diversity of our communities.
