Discussion and Desserts with Rachel Vogelstein
Awakening: #MeToo and the Global Fight for Women’s Rights
Thursday, December 9, 7 p.m. via Zoom
Since 2017, millions have joined the global #MeToo movement, catalyzing an unprecedented wave of women’s activism powered by technology that crosses borders, races, religions, and economic divides. Recently, tennis star Peng Shuai, one of China’s most recognized athletes, became a #MeToo accuser, garnering support from her followers around the world.
Join us on Zoom as Rachel Vogelstein discusses her new book Awakening: #MeToo and the Global Fight for Women’s Rights. Rachel, a senior advisor to the White House Gender Policy Council, will discuss the trajectory of the movement, with examples from China and other countries, and where it stands today.
