Talk Title and Description:
Title:
Transgender Representation in the Metaverse
Description:
My hope is that this presentation can serve as an invitation for us all to understand and appreciate that every human on earth is looking for the same things – to feel accepted and respected as our authentic selves. Representation and safety need to be a top priority in the metaverse for all people. As a Transgender person who found my community and support in the late 1990s on message boards and now as an experiential studio business owner developing in the Metaverse, I will share my experience and insights for a more equitable future.
