Mia McKenzie is the creator of the popular blog “Black Girl Dangerous” (http://www.blackgirldangerous.org/), activist, and author of “Black Girl Dangerous: on Race, Queerness, Class and Gender” as well as numerous articles and short stories. Black Girl Dangerous seeks to, in as many ways as possible, amplify the voices, experiences, and expressions of queer and trans* people of color. She creatively, and succinctly, touches on issues dealing with feminism, classism, heterosexism, and racism to a growing audience both on and offline.

As one of the most diverse cities in the country, the Houston community will have a chance to listen to, and engage with the speaker on, topics related to the intersections of class, race, gender, and queerness.
