Proposal Title
Social Injustice for LGBTQ in the Workplace
Abstract
In this presentation, I will dissect the issues of inequality for LGBTQ individuals and how these micro–aggressions follow, and therefore hinder, them in the workplace. I will discuss hypotheses for why pay discrimination exists and the hostility that LGBTQ individuals face and overcome. I will close the presentation with counseling theories that can empower and support these individuals on their difficult and isolating journey. At the close of the presentation there will be time left for questions.
