See this content in the original post

Join Co-hosts Sheila McGlown and Lisa Laudico for a conversation with Maimah Karmo, founder of the Tigerlily Foundation along with Christine Hodgdon and Julia Maues, co-founders of GRASP and the #PullUpASeat initiative. We are pleased to release this episode on the eve of Maimah's groundbreaking keynote and session at the 2020 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, the largest breast cancer symposium in the world, where she is co-presenting with the AACR on Setting the Stage for Health Equity, Collaboration, and Partnership. We find out what specifically has happened in the year since the launch of the #InclusionPledge and find out more about the #KnowMoreDisparities and #PullUpASeat initiatives. This is an extraordinary discussion on inclusion, disparities, allyship, privilege, stigmas, and the power of the individual.
