It is so important for community titleholders to elevate those without a title to make our community more cohesive. To truly unify and empower ourselves, we must all work together and put our best people on the front lines. Many of our best people don’t have titles.

The amount of people doing necessary work to keep the leather community unified and hopeful without a title is far vast than the amount of people with titles. What we have learned is that not everyone who has a title has it for the right reasons, where there are people who have never had a title who are the strongest in fighting for unity and visibility.

Join Tom Keller, Miguel Torres, and LTJ Reads as they bring you “Throwing Light Together – No Title Needed” at Austin Kink Weekend! Even though they have had titles, they want to help give people a pathway to success in the leather community rather it be locally or internationally.

They have partnered with 4 active community members without a title who are coming to AKW to join us in this unique panel focused on bringing the whole community together. They are Koneko, Tank, David Elsea, and Chico Onyx.

This panel is for everyone! We are encouraging titleholders to attend this panel to help uplift our community, bring unity, and recognize those that fight hard for the leather community without a title.

See you soon!
