Women+ of the Backstage Roundtable hosted by Emma Alderman

A partially moderated, group led space for discussion. The group will be invited to explore any themes, including but not limited to, how far we've come, what steps still need to be taken, how we can combat or handle microaggressions and misogyny in the workplace, and how we can support each other in these strange and potentially stressful times as a community. This will be a safe place to share and discuss among women and any trans or gender non conforming folks who wish to be involved in the discussion. While we encourage all genders to learn from each other, this particular space is not for cisgender men.
