Thank you to The E.W. Scripps Company and Danyelle “DC” Wright for inviting me to be a part of today’s amazing panel discussion during the #ScrippsEDISymposium! We had a meaningful discussion on the importance of understanding the barriers of employees with visible disabilities in the workplace.
What an opportunity to collaborate with renowned disability advocates like Rebecca Alexander, Maysoon Zayid and Andraea LaVant (a total powerhouse) What an honor!
E.W. Scripps is one of the nation’s largest local TV broadcasters, serving communities with quality, objective local journalism. Their reach across the US is extensive through national business networks, including news outlets like Court TV, Scripps News and entertainment brands ION, Bounce, Grit, Laff and ION Mystery to name a few.
Authentic representation in the media is so important in the advancement and advocacy of inclusivity. And if done right, there is a huge opportunity to challenge, advance and empower societal norms and #DEI.
So I was thrilled to be a part of this event today! ❤️
