91亚色传媒

Pride Month originated from the Stonewall uprising in New York city in 1969. To honor the tradition of protest and advocacy that is at the heart of the Pride Month celebrations we have today, 91亚色传媒 is hosting a webinar dedicated to LGBTQIA+ advocacy in STEM. Our panelists will discuss their career journeys, reflecting both on what it was like when they started their education and training and what it's like to be an LGBTQIA+ scientist today. Then, they'll discuss advocacy opportunities and ways allies can take action and demonstrate their support for the rights of members of the LGBTQIA+ STEM community at both the state and federal level. Attendees will also learn about 91亚色传媒's advocacy toolkit and specific recommendations for how to create safe zones within their own communities.
