Star Wars is described as a franchise for everyone, yet last year on X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag "No Girls Allowed" gained traction in discussions about who is and is not allowed to participate in the fandom. Moderated by Krystina Arielle (host of Star Wars: The High Republic Show; host of Star Wars Celebration; actor; cosplayer), Tricia Buchanan-Benson (Lucasfilm, Disney, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, and Futurama), Karen Hallion (Lucasfilm, Disney, Doctor Who, and Marvel), Sarah Wilkinson (Lucasfilm, Topps, 20th Century Fox, DC, and Marvel), and Annette Lilly (artist/creator) discuss what inspires them, how they got started, and what it is like to be a female creative within the Star Wars universe.
