PARTICIPATE: Effective Allyship: A Transgender Take on Intersectionality | Ashlee Marie Preston | TEDxPasadena
Host, commentator, and activist, Ashlee Marie Preston teaches that when we talk over people, ignore them or shut them down, what we’re really saying is, “I’m more important than you are … I don’t really care what you think, I don’t have time for your opinion, or, this isn’t a conversation. It’s a contest and I’m gonna win.” In this passionate and deeply heartfelt talk, Ashlee seeks to help promote understanding about intersectionality, allyship and an urgency for compassion.
Ashlee Marie Preston is a media personality, writer, speaker, and civil rights activist. She is the host of a podcast/vodcast entitled “Shook with Ashlee Marie Preston” which examines news, politics, entertainment, and pop culture through a social justice lens.
