Next up in “News from the NAGBW” are my notes from last nights talk on whether or not a reckoning can become a revolution as the industry confronts sexism.
Here are some takeaways from the discussion with host Jessica Infante and panelists Beth Demmon, Jess Bautista and Paige Latham Didora.
- hard to rehash these atrocious stories
- workers are at a disadvantage bur female workers are often more so
- career development is stunted
- toxic gratitude where you have to be happy despite the bad environment
- even job descriptions raise red flags
- maybe reporting incidents to the local brewers guild could help
- change the imperative from moral to either financial or legal
