Kristen discusses the impact of activist movements that have galvanized marginalized communities to stand together against the violence and social injustice that plagues our country. Kristen analyzes these issues through the lens of the State v. Chauvin, for which she provided National television coverage throughout the trial.
With a vision of justice for all, Kristen discusses how achieving credibility in school, the workplace, and various institutions may be impacted by gender and racial differences. She deftly explains how credibility is the composite of judgments and decisions made at the highest levels of professional leadership that, while nominally merit based, are frequently subject to unconscious biases that disproportionately affect women and people of color. Interwoven throughout Kristen’s discussions are her own personal and professional experiences, including motivational strategies and effective solutions for overcoming the credibility gap, being viewed as an effective and competent lawyer, and paving the way for others.
Kristen seamlessly connects the glass ceiling in the workplace that artificially suppresses the advancement of women and minorities with the acceptance of “rape myths” in the legal sphere. She discusses how historical institutions are formed around a culture that diminishes minorities and elevates white-male power structures. Kristen then examines how this leads to “meritorious” measurements that are anything but meritorious, reinforce minority suppression and bar marginalized communities from finding opportunity and justice.
Kristen, one of lead prosecutors in the Commonwealth v. Cosby trials, engages audiences in a discussion about prosecuting what many have described as the first major trial of the “Me To” era. She goes into the nuts and bolts of the trial, while stepping back at times to look at societal and cultural issues impacting this high-profile trial.
