Pride Month DEI Spotlight: "Weathering the Media Storm" featuring Nexus

The Office of DEI and Micron Technology are honored to bring back Nexus for Pride Month on Thursday, June 8, from 2 p.m. until 4 p.m. This virtual, interactive workshop will explore the important intersection of media literacy, wellbeing and the consumption and sharing of content and news online and via social media platforms.

As the digital landscape evolves, it becomes increasingly vital to navigate the vast sea of information with mindfulness and critical thinking. In this workshop, we’ll delve into the impact of media on our well-being and identity, particularly in relation to the LGBTQ+ community. We’ll empower participants with the tools and knowledge necessary to consume and share content responsibly, fostering a positive online environment that promotes inclusivity, understanding and respect.

By the end of the workshop, participants will have a deeper understanding of media literacy, its connection to well-being and the crucial role it plays in promoting positive change within the LGBTQ+ community and beyond. Join us to enhance your media literacy skills, foster digital well-being and champion a more inclusive online world.

This workshop will be an interactive virtual experience. Register for the workshop here.
