As a women-led organization, we’re acutely aware of the challenges women face in the workplace, and that’s exactly why we wanted to honor Nina Shaw with the National Equal Justice Award. Her grit and passionate advocacy make her the perfect champion for women. #NEJAD2019
Nina Shaw is the co-founder of the @timesupnow Legal Defense Fund, created at a critical time to fight sexual assault in the #MeToo era and empower women in the workplace. She represents some of the most powerful women in Hollywood like @ava, @Lupita_Nyongo & @TraceeEllisRoss.
“Nina Shaw really is the example of what lawyers and what everyone can do.” --@TinaTchen #NEJAD2019 #JusticeAboveAll
As we continue to confront the lack of representation and unequal treatment of Black women in Hollywood, Nina Shaw is, and has always been, at the forefront of challenging discriminatory industry practices. #JusticeAboveAll
“Her presence, her brown body, being a woman, her voice—it means more than she probably knows and realizes” --@mistyonpointe #JusticeAboveAll #NEJAD2019
As @LupitaNyongo stated in her introduction of Nina Shaw at #NEJAD2019: "She also fights for the larger society. She fights for inclusion and equality to remain on the agenda for the entertainment industry.”
In her acceptance speech, Nina had a clear message: Stand up for women and stand up for equality. #JusticeAboveAll #NEJAD2019
