Program:  Not Your Mother’s Feminism: Contemporary Feminism and Equity

Ever had questions about feminism but were afraid to ask?  Have you ever wondered why this term gets such a visceral reaction from people, so much so that many female-identifying people refuse to embrace it?  This discussion will walk us through the different waves of feminism to help us to understand the good, the bad and the ugly of feminism and the feminist movement and explain how we are now at a place where contemporary feminism seeks to embrace inclusion, diversion and equity for all genders, orientations, ethnicities and abilities.
