Honoring Black History Month: Roadblocks to Equity with Tina Opie
Outspoken speaker Tina Opie is an award-winning educator and researcher whose trademarked Shared Sisterhood framework has been the catalyst for individuals and organizations to unearth blind spots when it comes to biases and make lasting change, particularly when it comes to overcoming roadblocks to said justice and equity. Her book, Shared Sisterhood, digs deep into those strategies and unpacks actionable steps we can take to be more inclusive at work and at home. And it’s that book that is the groundwork for Tina’s proven strategies for overcoming obstacles to the race and gender-based discrimination that happens at more organizations than you might think.
