To mark PRIDE Month 2021, Ashurst’s Gabriel Leung, Administrative Support and LGBTIQ+ champion at Ashurst in New York, discusses the lives, careers and rights of trans people around the world. Gabriel hears first-hand what life is like for trans people in Singapore (from Evan Lam, Ashurst Financial Regulatory and OTC Derivatives Partner and LGBTIQ+ champion) and in the UK (from Rachel Reese, CEO at Global Butterflies). The trio then discuss active allies, role models, and debunking society’s stereotypes. Next, the conversation turns to how younger generations are increasingly enlightened when it comes to gender identity, how major companies are focusing on genuine corporate social justice, and what actions we can all take to support trans colleagues inside and outside of the workplace.
