This year’s TBA LGBT Forum, set for June 26, will feature a session with Tennessee’s first transgender elected official, Olivia Hill, who was voted as a council member at-large for the Metropolitan Council Office of Nashville and Davidson County in 2023. Hill has long served as a community leader, educating the public about the difficulties faced by women and the LGBTQ+ community. Hill was recently recognized as the Advocate of the Year by the Tennessee Pride Chamber. Other topics at the forum include constitutional protections, Chiles v. Salazar and the consequences of conversion therapy. The first 10 registrants will receive a reserved seat on Nashville’s Big Drag Bus for a two-hour tour of the city with LGBT Section leadership.
