by Affirmation

November 7, 2024

Dr. Kate Mower and University of Utah Digital Archives Librarian Jessica Brieman explore how to “queer” your life and history by rethinking Mormonism and historical narratives through an LGBTQIA+ lens. Learn to identify queer figures in texts, and discover how queering your own story can empower you to live authentically. Embrace the transformative power of this perspective!

The 2024 Affirmation International Conference was held October 11-13, 2024, at the Ogden Eccles Conference Center in Ogden, Utah. Portions of the conference were streamed and recorded in English and Spanish. The conference and recordings were made possible by the financial support of conference attendees, sponsors, donors, and exhibitors.

Affirmation creates worldwide communities of safety, love, and hope and promotes understanding, acceptance, and self-determination of individuals of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions. We affirm the inherent self-worth of LGBTQIA+ individuals as complete, equal, and valuable persons and support them as they define their individual spirituality and intersection with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Affirmation’s vision is to be a refuge to land, heal, share, and be authentic.
