This lecture is centered around rising above hate and embracing understanding, diversity, and inclusion, with an emphasis on the LGBTQ+ community. Through engaging storytelling and a dynamic PowerPoint presentation, you will gain insight into how to navigate differences that contribute to a positive work environment and community.
This lecture also covers generational diversity, intentional inclusion, and pronoun use. Register now to be empowered to create change personally, at work, and within your community.
This lecture offers a unique perspective on social relations by examining the intersections of discrimination within LGBTQ+ communities.
Oppression takes many forms in our lives, affecting both ourselves and those around us. Through personal storytelling, this lecture aims to help attendees understand how their own experiences relate to the larger social system of privilege and oppression.
Additionally, the lecture emphasizes the importance of allyship in both the workplace and community settings. Attendees will learn how to be better allies and support the LGBTQ+ community through the development of solutions that promote inclusion and reject hate.
To enhance the learning experience, a PowerPoint presentation will accompany the lecture.
