Each month Hartford International University and Spiritual Life Center, West Hartford, offer a discussion group on issues of social justice. The next session is on 1/4/22, 6:30-8 PM and the topic is Gender Equality. We meet via Zoom and use Ted Talks as the basis for discussion.  All are welcome.  Sessions are free, registration is required.

Before the meeting, we invite you to view the following Ted Talk: "The missing piece in the gender equality puzzle" by Joselyn DiPetta.  This video runs for 17 minutes and it can be found at the following link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYPgoEK6iPo&t=31sImage removed.
 
Here are some questions about the video that we will use for discussion starters when we meet.

     a) In what ways did the video touch your heart?
     b) How do you experience gender inequality in your life?
     c) Starting at the 13 minute mark, DiPretta lists several steps that people can take to promote gender equality.  Which ones make sense to you?  Do you think that some are unrealistic?
