SPEAK OUT: Intersex Awareness Day

This is the Intersex Awareness Day edition of Speak Out, a content series produced as part of the Be A Better Human initiative at UNSW. In this series, we talk to people who courageously share their personal experiences with racism, discrimination, harassment and bullying; sharing how they have been impacted and what theyve learnt from it. This year, Intersex Awareness Day fell during UNSWs weeklong Diversity Fest, so the Division of Equity Diversity Inclusion brought together some exceptional speakers in the intersex, advocacy and LGBTQI+ spaces for this Speak Out discussion. The speakers: Alissia Marsh is a comedian, lesbian and intersex advocate. She is a champion for body positivity and has some rather remarkable body quirks that she uncovers during her sets. Marsh has performed across Australia, and has become a regular host and headline act at popular venues including the Comedy Lounge, Fremantle Comedy Factor, Laugh Resort and Lazy Susans Comedy Den.
