During “Conversations that create change: Meeting people where they are and moving them towards justice,” human rights journalist Jimmie Briggs and Voices and Faces Project Founder Anne K. Ream will discuss the ways our language and word choices can open people up (or shut them down) during issue-oriented conversations, consider what brain science has to teach us about breaking through ideological barriers, and lead workshop participants in a dialogue about how best to speak to social and gender-justice issues in a hyper-partisan era. Anne and Jimmie will also explore best practices for having meaningful, change-focused conversations about sexual exploitation, trafficking, and prostitution.
During “Conversations That Create Change,” Anne and Jimmie will be supported by WorldWE Youth Coalition member Willow Locke. “Conversations That Create Change” is a featured presentation of the 5th Annual World Without Exploitation Youth Summit on Wednesday, July 13th, 2022, at the Brooklyn Law School. Open to youth ages 15 -28, and featuring a roster of nationally recognized gender, racial and social justice leaders, the Summit welcomes those who seek to create a world where no one is bought, sold or exploited.
