## Resource

This Pride season, The Roundtable is honored to welcome Karine Jean-Pierre! As the first Black person and first openly LGBTQ+ person to serve as White House Press Secretary, Karine shattered barriers while helping lead some of the most important conversations in our nation. Her journey from the daughter of Haitian immigrants to one of the most recognizable voices in American public life is a story of courage, authenticity, and pride. In this special Pride conversation, we talk about the importance of visibility, the power of living authentically, and what Pride means in today's world. Karine reflects on her groundbreaking career, the responsibility of representation, the LGBTQ+ leaders who inspired her, and why continuing the fight for equality matters now more than ever. It is an inspiring, heartfelt, and joyful conversation with a true history-maker.
