Val presenting their campaign to confront implicit bias on college campuses, at NADOHE.

My company, The Only Black Girl in the Room LLC offers strategies to address systemic oppression. Through workshops offered to the public or trainings curated for private companies, schools, nonprofit organizations and other institutions, I hope to educate and transform how we engage with people who are different from ourselves. Applying a racial justice lens, we have the opportunity to remove systemic oppression from our society. Of course sexism, ableism, homophobia, classism, Indigenous genocide, reproductive justice, and transphobia are all subjects that are discussed at these trainings, because dismantling systemic racism intersects with these issues.
