The convening will explore a range of topics including the power of collaboration, DEI and affirmative action, healthcare, imposter syndrome and Black women in leadership. The agenda features diverse sessions highlighted by a Saturday workshop on Black women in artificial intelligence (AI).
The panel on AI highlights “Black women experts who have led AI’s development in industry, and been involved in research and policymaking will frame the importance of raising awareness about the technology’s role in society.” Sesha Joe Moon, the chief diversity officer of the U.S. House of Representatives, lauded the event for its place in discussing diversity, equity and inclusion.
“I look forward to bringing ‘Congress to Communities’ in celebration of Black History Month and Women’s History Month,” Moon wrote, who will speak during the DEI panel discussion.
Guests slated to appear include Speaker of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives Joanna E. McClinton, Fatima Goss Graves, CEO of the National Women’s Law Center, and Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign. Philly’s own Musiq Soulchild is one eagerly anticipated musical guest.
Power Rising will focus on five key pillars: Business & Economic Empowerment; Culture, Community, and Society; Education, Technology, and Innovation; Health & Wellness; and Political Empowerment.
