DEI Speaker Identity Guidelines: Suggestions for speakers

The DEI Speaker Identity Guidelines: Suggestions for speakers is a set of suggestions for speakers about how to introduce their lens and points to consider if presenting on an identity that is not their own. This document is intended for presenters and includes suggestions about how a speaker should introduce themselves including their lens, experience, and bias. This document also includes some points to consider if a speaker is presenting on an identity that isn't their own. We validate that identity is a spectrum - Individuals may verbalize to the depth they are comfortable with. We welcome suggestions and feedback. See video for more information.
