Professional Big Mouth & College Speaker: Talking Empowerment & Representations at NYU; Video below. (DIARY)
Here I am with the students at Henry Street High School in NYC.
I love the students at New York University. They are generally open minded, creative, intelligent and open to fun. I’ve spoken at NYU a few different times. In this video I was giving a Black History Month keynote address on the roles we play and representations.
I have given keynote addresses also for Women’s History Month at New York University, Howard University and Washington State University; created and moderated panels at the Museum of the City of New York and New School for Social Research; curated a feminist film festival for VDay and a sexuality exhibit for the Chashama Gallery; mentored girls and women for Hip Hop for Health and Casa Attabex Ache; and presented workshops at the Museum of TV and Radio and University of Northern Colorado. Phew!
I cut out my film clips I showed in this video in the interest of time BUT I left in the giddy and hilarious young women who introduced me. They were trying to read my bio off of a very small phone screen. Ay dios mio. Check it out!
