Dear John, We’ve got seven different workshop tracks planned for Learning With Love this October, and today we’re sharing about our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Resilience tracks. Our DEI workshops will include A radicalBLend on Identity + Inclusion, where attendees will explore the definition of intersectionality and its impact on queer youth of color and their families; African Queerness and Intersectionality, where participants will expand their understanding of intersectionality and decolonization, explore how to create safer, more inclusive spaces for LGBTQ+ Africans, and amplify stories with pride and purpose; First, Do No Further Harm: Addressing Implicit Bias in the Workplace, Classroom, and Doctor’s Office, an honest, action-oriented conversation about implicit bias and how it shows up in workplaces, classrooms, and healthcare settings; and Supporting AANHPI Immigrant LGBTQ+ Families, which will present case studies and learnings in order to create the best support system for AANHPI immigrant families. Our Resilience workshop track will include Leading with Joy to Drive Meaningful Change, where participants will learn how to use joy as a tool and encourage and empower new allies and advocates to step into their power and make a difference; Recharge & Rewire: How to Show Up Stronger Without Burning Out, an interactive workshop designed to help you step out of the burnout cycle and reclaim your sense of agency and resilience; and What We Know May Harm Us: A Joy-Fueled Path to Courageous Love, where you’ll gain practical strategies for engaging in joyful resistance, building inclusive communities, and protecting your own spirit in the face of opposition Don’t wait—spaces are filling up fast!
