Answer the following questions:

1. Imagine that your race, class, gender, or sexual orientation were different. In what ways would your life be different? Would it be easier or more difficult? Would it change the way your family, friends, peers, and society treat you? Explain your answer.

2. As an audience member (i.e., in class, events), do you think that speakers include your reality (i.e., gender, class, race, type of family, sexual orientation) in their speeches? Explain your answer.

3. Imagine that you are attending a conference and not a single speaker mentions anything (i.e., examples, issues) related to your reality. How would you feel?
