About the Talk
In a time where equity and inclusion is at the forefront of people's minds, we find that our writing reflects efforts of diversity and intersectionality in previously untold ways, which leads us to ask: What does the work look like as we seek to tell these previously untold stories? What does good representation look like, and how can we achieve intentional, authentic representation for otherwise underrepresented voices? Rowan Williams talks about their experience leading the effort for Tyari the Traveler, Riot's first openly transgender character, and working on the cast of A Long Journey to an Uncertain End.
