Banning LGBTQ Education Blocks LGBTQ Economic Advancement - Part 2
As the world celebrates Pride Month, Jobs for the Future continues to examine the challenges LGBTQ workers and learners, especially educators, face in joining and being a part of the U.S. workforce. In this episode of the Horizon’s podcast, host Tameshia Bridges Mansfield brings us back to the stage at SXSW EDU, to continue listening in on an enlightening, personal, and passionate conversation between JFF’s Taylor Sprague and special guest Philip McAdoo, a
leading Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion educator and activist.
LGBTQ workers and learners are under attack around the United States despite decades of strides for civil rights, including a 2020 landmark Supreme Court ruling protecting Americans from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. In this episode of the Horizon’s Podcast, host Tameshia Bridges Mansfield passes the microphone to her colleague Taylor Sprague, who welcomes special guest Philip McAdoo, a leading Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion educator and activist. Taylor and Philip share their own experiences fighting discrimination as they walk a tightrope between protecting themselves and staying in the fight for their own professional fulfillment and, for Philip, a calling to help children learn and grow.
