Sunday April 6, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm PDT
W303
This panel explores strategies and pathways for BIPOC and queer women to assert their presence, advocate for inclusivity, and navigate the journey toward finding a voice and claiming space in the TV, film, and news media industries, both behind and in front of the camera.
