Lindsey S. Mignano moderated a panel entitled "Exploring Intersectionality in 2021: How DEI policies can recruit, retain, and promote intersectional attorneys" for the Bar Association of San Francisco.  The panel was comprised of speakers, Kelly Matayoshi of Farella Braun + Martel, Chambord Benton-Hayes of Benton Employment Law Group, Suzette Barnes, Vice President, Wealth Management Litigation of Morgan Stanley, Ernest Hammond of Facebook, and Jay Lee of One Justice.  Panelists discussed the concept of intersectionality, how the legal industry addressed the intersectionality issues in the past and how can we better address such issues in the future, why intersectional individuals are in a unique position to raise consciousness surrounding the intersectionality issues in the workplace, and how non-intersectional individuals be better allies so as to encourage more diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplaces.
