Shorts: Empowering girls to disagree with confidence and civility

🎤“Tell us what you really think!” Never has it felt so difficult to do this without the fear of being shouted down or shamed. Engaging in discussions about divisive topics can feel impossible in our polarized society. And if it’s tough for adults, imagine how hard it is for our young people—especially girls, who are socialized to be agreeable and polite. Join us as we explore nuggets from our podcast, webinars, and ICGS events to help our girls and young women to find their voices and develop the skill of engaging in civil discourse. If girls can understand others’ perspectives while still being able to express their own with confidence, they will help us build a better world. 🌎
