Dear Friend,

 

The PPNYC Activist Council, in collaboration with Living Liberally, invites you to

Body Politic 09: Voices on Feminism

Wednesday, November 4th

6-7pm: Happy Hour

7-9pm: A Conversation with Gloria Feldt, Lynn Harris, and Jessica Valenti 

The Tank
354 W 45th Street
New York, NY 10036

Join three of New York City’s leading feminist voices, women’s rights activists and influential writers as they discuss what feminism means to them. Find out how their respective generations have helped shape feminism today – and their perspectives on where feminism is headed next.

Plus, PPNYC’s Political Action Team will provide the run down on the results and pro-choice victories in the local election.

Gloria Feldt is the author of The War on Choice and Behind Every Choice Is a Story, a commentator for the Huffington Post and Women's eNews, and the former president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. She has been named US Glamour's Woman of the Year and one of Vanity Fair's Top 200 Woman Legends, Leaders and Trailblazers.

Lynn Harris is an author, essayist, commentator, mostly-retired comedian, and award-winning journalist. She writes about pop culture, politics, gender, relationships, religion, and disability, sometimes all at once. Her most recent book is the satirical novel Death By Chick Lit, whose prequel, Miss Media, was hailed by New York Magazine as a "sharp, smart satire."

Jessica Valenti is the author of Full Frontal Feminism: A Young Woman's Guide to Why Feminism Matters and the founder and executive editor of feministing.com. She is also a co-founder of the REAL hot 100, a campaign to highlight the important work of young women across the country. Her writing has appeared in numerous publications including Ms. Magazine, Salon, and The Guardian.
