Authentic Role Model Speaker

VIEW AGENDA

In an effort to include more diverse voices and stories, while also acknowledging the burden and burnout that often occurs for BIPOC members, we are also utilizing resources that already exist. HERE is a great list of LGBTQ+ themed Ted Talks, many of which are BIPOC speakers. During our meeting we'll watch one together and discuss as a group. Past Ted Talks watched in the group include: Fahad Saeed | The importance of using inclusive language. and Nita Mosby Tyler | Want a more just world? Be an unlikely ally.

We are always looking for live speakers to join during a meeting. If you have a role model recommendation, contact a member of the Planning Committee (contact info below). Maybe it's you! The overall theme for speakers is to share their experience or tell a story of living and working authentically out.

This Month's Ted Talk:
The story of Marvel's first queer Latina superhero with Gabby Rivera

ABOUT: With Marvel's "America Chavez," Gabby Rivera wrote a new kind of superhero -- one who can punch portals into other dimensions while also embracing her gentle, goofy, soft side. In a funny, personal talk, Rivera shares how her own childhood as a queer Puerto Rican in the Bronx informed this new narrative -- and shows images from the comic book that reveal what happens when a superhero embraces her humanity. As she says: "That myth of having to go it alone and be tough is not serving us."
