Foundation for Louisiana
Exchange Place: Interrupting Toxic Narratives
Foundation for Louisiana will fiscally sponsor a PBS documentary and screening series that interrupts gender and racial bias narratives by elevating strategies for workplace equity.
Workplace bias persists in narratives about who belongs, who leads, and who is 'qualified,' especially for women with fewer opportunities. Foundation for Louisiana will sponsor Exchange Place: Interrupting Toxic Narratives, a PBS documentary and initiative inspired by civil rights-era New Orleans, where Black women broke color lines with community backing. Partnering with historians and civic leaders, the project interrupts harmful narratives and shares learning through facilitated dialogues, driving measurable shifts in participation and understanding.
