Living on the Intersection of Kink, Consent & Race

As an African-American Alternative Sexuality Educator, Writer, Performer and Muse, Mollena Lee Williams-Haas possesses a unique perspective and over 27 years of experience in the BDSM, Kink and Leather Lifestyle. The talk will center on her thoughts and experiences as a woman of color navigating the chaos of consensual power exchange as she lives it every day. How and why can the experience and knowledge from kinky communities benefit to interested audience beyond this context?
