In 2020, the term “intersectionality” reached its highest point of Google searches since 2004 despite the term being more than 30 years old. Why is everyone talking about intersectionality now and what does that mean for Black professionals who are navigating intersectionality in the workplace every day? We are proud to welcome Zaid Zaid, Head of US Public Policy at Cloudflare, as we address everything from confronting microaggressions to fostering an inclusive work environment, Zaid will provide valuable perspectives on promoting diversity and equity in the professional realm. He’ll be joined in conversation by PowerToFly’s Senior Director of Talent Experience Sienna Brown.
