NEXT WEEK! FINAL TICKETS! 🚨 Compassionate Conversations with Afua Hirsch Thursday 5 June 2025 FREE, link in bio for tickets 🔗 Join us for the final event in this inspiring series. This concluding conversation aims to illuminate how the combined effects of gender and racial dynamics shape professional and personal experiences, particularly for Black women. Afua Hirsch (@afuahirsch) is a British writer, journalist, broadcaster, and former barrister, known for her work on race, identity, and social justice. Through personal insights and professional expertise, Hirsch will explore how traditional power structures and cultural narratives continue to influence women’s advancement in male-dominated spaces. This conversation offers a unique opportunity to examine how language shapes our understanding of gender, beauty ideals, and racial identity. It will explore the complexities of intersectional experiences and share strategies for authentic dialogue across different lived experiences. We will delve into the specific challenges faced by women, specifically Black women, and develop practical approaches for creating more inclusive professional and personal environments. The event is part of Pascal Matthias (Vice President of Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Social Justice @uni_southampton) and his talks series, Conflicting ideas; Conflict and Compassionate Conversations with leading cultural voices. Presented by John Hansard Gallery in partnership with @mayflower.studios, this event has been made possible through support from the University of Southampton’s Knowledge Exchange and Enterprise, with funding from The Higher Education Innovation Funding (HEIF). #AfuaHirsch #InConversation #Culture #Southampton #SouthamptonEvents #FreeEvents @uos_engagement @uni_southampton_wsa @visit_soton @southamptonforward @backonair  @aceagrams
