"The Exceptional, Impossible Woman Indeed" Topic of Brown Bag Series

Feb. 1, 2010

“The Exceptional, Impossible Woman Indeed” will be the topic of the free Faces of Diversity Brown Bag series noon Friday, Feb. 19, at the Phoenix City Council Chambers, 200 W. Washington St.

Millie C. Bloodworth, author, will share her personal experiences discovering and defining her gender identification, and her professional experiences regarding support and education for individuals dealing with this issue. In a recently published book with the same name as her topic, Bloodworth discusses the growth of diversity and the growing acceptance of transgender issues as she has worked with various Valley groups over the past 30 years.

The free event is co-sponsored by the Phoenix Human Relations Commission and the city’s Equal Opportunity Department. It features dynamic people telling their stories about diversity.
