Moderator: Daniel Reyes, Chief Program Officer, The LGBT Center

11:45 am EDT | Be The Change: Driving Intersectional Equality and Inclusion (Sponsored By Mastercard)

In light of recent events, the world is now more than ever uniting to champion advocacy and activism. As we celebrate Pride month, our focus can no longer be on acceptance alone, rather we must stand against racism and be a driver of change and equality. Mastercard, partners and community members will come together for a powerful dialogue on how we can elevate the voices that need to be heard and drive real-action to foster intersectional equality within the Black and LGBTQIA+ communities together.

Moderator: Tommy DiDario, TV Host and Lifestyle Contributor

Panelists: Randall Tucker, Chief Diversity & Inclusion Officer, Mastercard | Dawn Ennis, Managing Editor of Outsports.com | Nick Adams, Director of Transgender Media & Representation at GLAAD | Peppermint, Actress and Trans Advocate

1:20pm EDT | LIVE ZOOM BREAK OUT SESSIONS

NYC Pride has team up with a select few partners and sponsors to bring you LIVE ZOOM panel discussions. This gives you the opportunity to engage with speakers via Q&A - RSVP for individual sessions in the "add on" drop down menu of the ticket section. When you RSVP for your FREE session of interest you will receive an email with instructions on how to log onto the ZOOM breakout during the conference. Here are the following breakout sessions available to choose from:

  • WALMART | The Influence of ERGs on Inclusive Cultures

It’s been said that successful corporate culture transformations must start at the top of the org chart; however, for lasting change to take hold it must be driven at a grassroots level. Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) have long been the unlock for corporations that have come to be known for fostering inclusive workplace cultures. Walmart will bring corporate and community partners together for a dynamic discussion on the impact of ERGs across the intersectional landscape of diversity – with an emphasis on the LGBTQ+ community – as we pause to celebrate Pride Month in the midst of unprecedented civil unrest due to systemic racial inequities throughout society.    

Moderator: Ben Hasan, Senior Vice President and Chief Global Culture, Diversity & Inclusion Officer – Walmart Inc.

Panelists: Bob Witeck, President – Witeck Communications Inc; Candice Jones, Director – Global Culture

  • Omnicom | PRIDE VS PANDEMIC: Communicating Solidarity and Support in a State of Isolation
  • Mental Health Panel | A panel discussion of mental health needs and services: working with LGBTQ+ and communities of color across the lifespan
  • TASK FORCE |A conversation centered around consent, toxic relationships, relationship abuse & LGBTQIA+ sex education

Once the break out session ends, head back to NYC Pride's Youtube and Facebook to enjoy the following discussions:

-------------------------------------

2:30 pm EDT | Anti-Trans Violence and the Role of Guns curated by Everytown for Gun Safety

Everytown for Gun Safety, National Center for Transgender Equality and Translatin@ Coalition are partnering together to talk about the effects of gun violence on the trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming community, and pointing out the disparity for Black community members. The goal of this session is to discuss the data, what we know, what we don’t know, and give a call to action for folks to support the trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming community.

Moderator: Keni Nooner, Partnerships Manager, Everytown for Gun Safety

Panelists: Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen, Deputy Executive Director for Policy & Action, National Center for Transgender Equality | Aryah Lester, Deputy Director, Transgender Strategy Center | Everett Redente, Organizing Manager, Everytown for Gun Safety | Bamby Salcedo, Founder of Translatin@ Coalition

-------------------------------------

3:15 pm EDT | State of the LGBTQIA+ Media

Visibility matters. What people see on TV, film, video games, online, and read in newspapers and news outlets has a huge impact in how they treat each other and the decisions made in courtrooms, Churches, schoolyards, and the ballot box.

Moderator: Brooke Sopelsa, Editorial Director, NBC Out

Panelists: Mike Doyle, Partner & President, North America, Ketchum | Monica Trasandes, Director of Spanish-Language and Latinx Media, GLAAD| Raquel Willis, Black transgender activist, writer and media strategist
