In the words of the late essayist, Audre Lorde: “There is no thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives.”
Invisibilized in conversations on cis-gender issues, women identified people of color face unique challenges, living in a world where they experience both racism, sexism and transphobia all while working to achieve and perform at their highest level. In this conversation, we will discuss the barriers that women-identified people of color encounter and specifically address the role of gender identity, gender expression, and race at Google.

Panelists:
Tanzina Vega
Linda Sarsour
Kim Crenshaw
EJ Johnson

Event moderated by Dr. Myosha McAfee.
