Please note: this session will repeat at 3:45 PM on Saturday, June 22.

IBPOC communities, like any community, are partially defined by their membership; while KADs may seem like a goup that would naturally be part of the larger group, this is not a perspective shared by all members of either community. This session invites attendees to critically consider the experiences (including opportunities and challenges) of KADs navigating IBPOC communities and spaces. Through a combination of large and small group conversations, individual reflections, presentations, and interactive activities, participants will be able to explore multiple perspectives related to identity development as well as increase their awareness of self, others, and relationships.
