The dominant culture is a culture that is the most powerful, widespread, or influential within a social or political entity in which multiple cultures are present. In a society refers to the established language, religion, values, rituals, and social customs. These traits are often the norm for the society as a whole.

Given this description, how can Pagans create space for those representing non-dominent cultural aspects? How can we pave the way for others to follow? How can we ensure equal representation by raising our hands and our voices? Join this panel as we discuss how Pagans can lead the way in creating space for everyone within the dominant culture.
