EVENT: Half the Sky Twitter Chat July 18th

Remember that book everyone was reading a few years ago about the plight of women and girls around the world? Well it's still being read (although it still sits dusty on my book shelf taunting me) by thousands and has grown into a movement.

Not only is there a fab looking website and a PBS special October 1st and 2nd, but today there is a twitter chat!

Wednesday, July 18
Join Half the Sky and Somaly Mam at 5:30 pm Eastern
Use the hashtags #endslavery and #halfthesky

 This is happening during summer camp pick up, so I can't join in the discussion, but I hope you can make it!
