TRAILER: #EP1 Black History Month Special in partnership with the Diverse Speaker Bureau

Diversity Alliance Talks

#EP1 TRAILER:

“Black speakers are not just for Black History Month”

Welcome to this series of bitesized episodes in collaboration with the Diverse Speaker Bureau, where in honour of BHM we showcase some of our amazing Black speakers.

We advocate that Black speakers should not just be wheeled out for Black History Month to talk about diversity and inclusion, racism or Black history, but that Black voices should be heard equally and that equity should be a year round mission.

If we are serious about delivering equity, we need to give real opportunities to Black speakers, pay them properly, and truly demonstrate representation across the board, all the time.

In this episode we talk:

• Being Black, Female and Queer

• Identity Politics

• How the entertainment industry informs our biases (and how events can perpetuate these biases)

• Queer Identity

• Intersectionality

• Black Mermaids, Hobbits and Fairies
