Leading up to the evening of the gala, there will be a free, virtual panel discussion on August 11 moderated by Priya David Clemens, host of KQED's Newsroom, with GLIDE President and CEO Karen Hanrahan and the awardees focused on the resiliency and unique character of the San Francisco Bay Area and addressing rising inequities through community building and the empowerment and elevation of marginalized groups. Drawing on their personal experience as community builders and powerful advocates for women and people of color, the awardees will have an engaging conversation on the mounting threats to human rights following the Supreme Court Roe v Wade decision, the importance of representation in social justice work, especially regarding race and gender, and how we can mobilize for change in this pivotal time.
