According to Apple, there will be hands-on sessions that "explore new perspectives" using iPad, iPhone, and Mac, along with opportunities to share ideas with others and learn from inspiring female creators.
There will be sessions on creating AR experiences, learning product skills, and more, along with unique sessions at various Apple locations around the world.

I will check out Michigan avenue.
And why does the one woman in the illustration have a mustache?
Yeah. Every day is just a new opportunity to remind everyone that white men (who built almost everything around you) are bad. And if one happens to be straight, god forbid, they're basically Hitler.Huh? Every day is a straight white men day... :confused:
Sorry, but I haven't lived in the last 2000 years. Either way, please send me all the privileges you claim that I have.Are your pupils adjusting alright after being under that rock for the last 2000 years?
Apple pandering while using sweatshops in China to build our overpriced iPhones.Apple pandering as usual....
It's actually true. Straight white man are being demonized in the west. You are just not paying attention.Imagine having that takeaway from all this.
White men, who are responsible for building western civilization, are being demonized left and right. You are just not paying attention.Huh? Every day is a straight white men day... :confused:
That's not the case. As a straight white male, no one has ever credited me for anything mostly. Especially not when you are 5'6". Truth is, in a western society women are the most privileged and protected. It's all about women here, women there, black people here, black people there, same goes for gay and trans people and minorities. Please focus on the real issues. We are all equal, no need to feel entitled.Huh? Every day is a straight white men day... :confused:
I'm not saying you are, but many others definitely are.
