Growing Up Female
If there's anyone in the New Paltz, New York area, come check out a conference there tomorrow: Girlhood: The Challenge and Promise of Growing Up Female. I'll be speaking on a panel tomorrow morning with Senior Adviser to UNICEF, Mary Roodkowsky, and three students (Yeah, dope planning on Professor Heather Hewitt's part to include students as key voices!): Queen Bond, Julliany Lahoz, and Cristal Pimentel.
And if you're not in a studious mood this weekend, alright. But you better have yourself some fun. Feminist dance parties always work wonders for our NYC crew.

I attended, though I had to come late and missed all but the end of your portion of the panel. I was honestly a bit disapointed in the conference... portions were just...too 2nd wavey?
(hey leslie!)
I was there!! I really enjoyed what you said - I completely agree. My new approach to feminist activism is that what third wave feminism's biggest weakness is, is lack of self-love. And I believe you'd agree.
I loved the conference (I'm biased because I was on the planning committee)but I do wish there was something on sex and GLBTQ issues for girls.
Great job!
(and Hi Leslie and Sara! - FMLA reunion!)
