Dr. Anneliese Singh
In this session, Dr. Singh invites attendees to identify the barriers to their own liberation within engineering and computing diversity and to develop a plan to integrate liberation practices into their everyday lives that honors and uplifts their experiences of intersecting identities and interlocking privileges and oppressions. Attendees will then be invited to use this deep self-reflection on their own journeys towards liberation and freedom to engage in social change within their personal and professional communities.
