Unlocking Inclusive Media with Intersectionality

This event took place on Tuesday, March 15, 2022 at 10:00 AM UTC.

Do you ever wake up in the morning and pick up your phone to tune into a YouTube series, TV show, or even the morning news? What do you see? Does it make you think differently or provide a new perspective? For years, socioeconomic, racial/ethnic & gender inequalities have run rampant in the media. Today’s media & entertainment landscape play an integral role in setting the tone for the future of inclusion. Creators & businesses globally are elevating underrepresented voices through an intersectional framework from the beginning of their production process through their premieres. In this session, you'll hear from members of the Black, Queer, Lesbian, Gay, Latino & Transgender communities on how to connect with your audience & avoid blindspots using the concept of intersectionality. Venue: Austin Marriott Downtown, Waller Ballroom DEF Ben Abraham, Zahara Hill, Aiden Korotkin, Sav Rodgers
