Changing Perspectives on Sex, Gender, Humanity, and the World | Kand McQueen | TEDxBloomington

As a people, we have chosen to obsess upon our differences and exclude those who do not fit our conventional categorizations despite our common humanity. In this presentation, Dr. Kand McQueen suggests four perspectival shifts that together formulate an alternative to this polarization. The result is a broader and richer conceptualization of humanity; one that has room for all persons, everywhere. Live recording and post-production of this talk was done by Jon Stante Video Developer and Creator. Kand McQueen is a nationally-recognized keynote speaker on issues of gender identity. Beginning while still a graduate student, Dr. McQueen has been speaking on this topic for over 18 years to a variety of student, professional, and community audiences in settings ranging from academic conferences and high school, college, and university campuses to mental health centers, churches, synagogues and community forums to appearances on community radio and public television. Dr. McQueen earned a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology with a specialization in Inquiry Methodology from Indiana University’s School of Education, and formerly served as graduate faculty at two universities. Dr. McQueen is committed to educating about the existence of those who fall outside the dichotomous categories of male and female, and in the process, facilitate societal understanding and acceptance of all human beings.
