Bi Visibility Day presentation
For Bi Visibility Day 2020, I gave a talk at Pfizer about bisexuality and intersectionality. I covered common biphobic stereotypes and the problem with them, the struggles of being a bisexual person of colour, the statistics surrounding both these issues and what individuals, and businesses, can do to improve their workspace. Over 80 people attended the event.
This is what Jane Finch, my client at Pfizer, said about my talk.
It can be difficult to find Bi role models in the workplace so I needed an external speaker to deliver an education event on the Bi experience for our LGBTQ+ and Allies network. Having seen Vaneet at a panel event I didn’t hesitate to ask him if he was available within our budget. During our on-line event Vaneet clearly explained the phobia and erasure Bi people face inside and outside work. He was also able to bring an intersectional perspective and motivated us to become Allies to the Bi community. A great session in our 2020 LGBTQ+ and Allies program.
