In this plenary, the Center for Social Inclusion’s Maya Wiley leads a conversation with writer Janet Mock, the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health’s Jessica Gonzalez-Rojas, seminal race scholar Michael Omi and the Albany Law School’s Christian Sundquist. Together, they discuss the present and future of race and gender and their intersections, and what it means for political and cultural power.
A note on audio: since this is a recording of a live event in front of a real audience, there are a few quirks with sound quality. We’re working to get text transcripts available of this and the rest of our plenaries — stay tuned!
