All-Member Experience Webinar: Allyship
3/10/2024
Join us for a conversation about allyship on March 10 at 8 p.m. ET with intersectional allyship educator Laura Gentner Hutchinson. Even when you commit to being more inclusive or advocating for equality, you find yourself unsure how to proceed as an ally or show up for others without being performative. Sound familiar? Learn from Hutchinson on how we can reconsider allyship to best support communities we care about.
Our Guest Speaker
Laura Gentner Hutchinson
Laura Gentner Hutchinson (she/they) is an intersectional allyship educator, consultant, and public speaker from Dayton, Ohio. Situated at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities, including disability and queerness, Hutchinson’s passion is empowering individuals to take action toward a world marked by radical inclusion. She holds two degrees from the University of Dayton, including a Master of Science in education, where she also spent five years establishing UD's first LGBTQ+ student services program. Hutchinson’s award-winning research on what LGBTQ+ students actually want and expect in allies led to her mission to make "ally" a verb — literally. She believes that allyship is incomplete without addressing multiple systems of oppression, such as ableism, racism, queerphobia, classism, etc. Through her focus on intersectional LGBTQ+ and disability solidarity, Hutchinson helps communities practice proactive and authentic inclusion.
