During our meeting we'll watch one together and discuss as a group. Past Ted Talks watched in the group include: <a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/fahad_saeed_the_importance_of_using_inclusive_language" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fahad Saeed | The importance of using inclusive language</a>. and <a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/nita_mosby_tyler_want_a_more_just_world_be_an_unlikely_ally" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nita Mosby Tyler | Want a more just world? Be an unlikely ally</a>.</p> <p style="margin-bottom:20px;">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.</p> <p style="margin-bottom:20px;text-align:center;"><strong>This Month's Ted Talk:</strong><br /><strong><a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/gabby_rivera_the_story_of_marvel_s_first_queer_latina_superhero" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The story of Marvel's first queer Latina superhero with Gabby Rivera</a></strong></p> <p style="margin-bottom:20px;text-align:left;"><span><strong>ABOUT: </strong>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."</span></p>  <p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Register now for the next virtual meeting of the LGBTQ+ & Allies Tessitura Community Group!<br /></strong></p> <p style="margin-bottom:20px;"><em>Reminder that the Tessitura LGBTQ+ & Allies community group is a safe space to be yourself, no matter where you are in your personal path to living authentic.
