Dr. Loraine Hutchins reflects on her experience at BECAUSE 2014 with keynote presenter ABilly S. Jones-Hennin in a new blog post. She begins: "Surround me with a few hundred bisexuals for a whole weekend, and I relax like I haven’t in a long time, feeling empowered and supported. Even after all these years as an out bisexual, being with so many bi comrades who understand our unique challenges and care about our community is still a rare experience. But if Keynoter ABilly Jones-Hennin hadn’t launched a full-on campaign to convince me to go with him, I would have missed out on this inspiring gathering of my peers."
