95: What Is Intersectionality with LaVanda Brown of the YWCA


Listen Later

Intersectionality. Haven’t heard of it? You’re about to get the inside scoop. Join Gervase and her guest LaVanda Brown of the YWCA as they discuss LaVanda’s work in and around the YWCA, including powerful topics like racism, women empowerment, internalized -isms and false hierarchy, and how we as modern women can walk the road to healing and wholeness in a unified and tangible way. 

LaVanda Brown joined YWCA Greater Charleston as executive director in February 2016.  Her experience, leadership, and passion for serving others span 30 years.  A passionate advocate for causes including gender equality, diversity, and racial equity, and a strong ally of under-resourced teens and homeless populations, she envisions a world where differences are not just tolerated but celebrated.
