What do these discussions look like when we have the space to mess up and be held accountable?”  Connect with Renee:⭐Connect on Instagram: @bellerenne⭐Connect on the Web : https://reneempowers.com/⭐Feminist Book Club -  https://www.feministbookclub.com/ Connect with Allison:⭐ Connect on Instagram @allisonwalsh⭐ JOIN OUR FREE COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/shebelievedshecouldcommunity⭐ Check out book recommendations from the show here⭐ Download your free 90 day planner here⭐ ORDER THE SBSC BOOK⭐ Direct Link to Review SBSC

Today Vanessa chats with Feminist Book Club founder Renee Powers about the different ways that boys and girls perceive mathematical intelligence, why women get a bad rep when it comes to reading maps, and how feeling confident with math might actually be the secret to tackling economic equality.

This was a definition of feminism I offered in Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center more than 10 years ago. It was my hope at the time that it would become a common definition everyone would use. I liked this definition because it did not imply that men were the enemy. By naming sexism as the problem it went directly to the heart of the matter. Practically, it is a definition which implies that all sexist thinking and action is the problem, whether those who perpetuate it are female or male, child or adult. It is also broad enough to include an understanding of systemic institutionalized sexism. As a definition it is open-ended. To understand feminism it implies one has to necessarily understand sexism.” Transwomen of color is the highest minority murder rate in this country [bctt tweet="The issue is not just equal pay and the #metoo movement, it’s life or death for a lot of people"] When those people feel safe in this world, everyone will feel safe in the world #METOO or #AMINEXT?
