Women, Music, Identity, and Activism

Catalyst is a proud Marketing Partner of the “Unfinished Work” virtual event series from The New York Times.

Since the dawn of the suffrage movement, innumerable queer women — many of them artists — have played a key role in the battle for women’s rights. From suffrage songs to today’s pop hits, how do queer female musicians share messages about justice, equality, and change? How are modern artists informed by the past, and how does their music imagine a more equitable future?

Join singer, songwriter, performer, producer and founder of the Looking Out Foundation, Brandi Carlile and multi-talented performer Hayley Kiyoko in conversation with Technology and culture reporter, Nellie Bowles.

This Unfinished Work conversation will give musicians an opportunity to share stories and insights as they explore the activism in their work.
