For the 4th annual Powertalk, The topic this year is Financial literacy within minority communities. The Power Talk panel provides a non-judgment atmosphere for both men and women to inspire others. While aiming to inspire the voiceless and give hope to the hopeless. Power Talks will spark taboo conversations by providing knowledge and resources needed for personal wellness. I first started Powertalk to speak about challenges with being a creative and struggles while working a 9-5. The last two PowerTalks focused on Sexual abuse and how to overcome it. I am a survivor of incest sexual abuse for 8 years of my life. It was only right to uplift others who have experienced sexual abuse or who have children to inform them how it can impact your life and the resources to get through it. The pandemic this year has taught me that we have to find other ways to generate income or we will be stuck waiting for a stimulus check to eat.
This Power Talk will consist of 5 panelists. Each panelist will have expertise connected with wealth-building (ex: life insurance agent, financial coach, real estate broker, etc) Date: Sunday, June 27th, 2021 Location Atlanta, Venue TBD Time: 6-9pm
Peerspace is on a mission to bring people together. We believe it is impossible to achieve that goal unless we also fight for equality and access to resources in the communities we serve.
Having a space to gather, create, and exchange ideas is an important part of any movement. In order to magnify voices that are often quieted, Peerspace will sponsor venues for people who challenge prejudice and fight for social justice and equality.
Each quarter, we will sponsor space for three projects that are relevant to our community. These projects can range from fundraisers and educational initiatives to art exhibits and photo series.
