Womxn, the Economy Today: A Conversation with Kelly Nevins
On this episode, I sat down with Kelly Nevins, the Executive Director of the Women’s Fund of Rhode Island. We took a deeper look into womxn and the economy in Rhode Island. Specifically, we look at the position of womxn of color in the state and how local organizations, such as the Women’s Fund of Rhode Island, are fighting for better solutions to gender and racial inequity in the workplace. We also talk about running for office, the history of womxn in our democracy, and the many events coming up in 2019 for Rhode Islanders.
