New York City is home to nearly 10 million people, yet it has a reputation of being one of the most isolating places on Earth. That goes double for gay men -- triple for young gay men of color. That's why we started this group, to create a place where black and latino gay men in their 20s and 30s can meet, socialize, and make long-lasting connections that are otherwise hard as hell to come across. So whether you're a self-professed geek, social butterfly, intellectual, or just new to the city, t …

To achieve this vision, we commit to: 1) personal growth, both individually and within community, so each of us steps into our full power as a gay man; and 2) individual and co …

Generally we talk about the book for the first part of the meeting and then the conversation evolves (or maybe devolves) to talking about anything else:  pop culture, gay life, vacations, etc.  We meet a …
