Speak Up! by Smiley Movement is a series of roundtable discussions where we tackle some of the big issues in our world – and focus on the solutions. 

We gather experts and people who are striving to make a difference to give them an opportunity to speak up and share their story. Watch the full 45-minute discussion here:    • Speak Up, Episode 3: LGBTQ+: Fighting...
