Last night I had a dream that Nicholas Kristoff, co-writer of Half the Sky, invited me over AIM (of all things...) to work for Half the Sky.  Being me, I tweeted it, and low and behold...

"The Half the Sky Movement is cutting across platforms to ignite the change needed to put an end to the oppression of women and girls worldwide, the defining issue of our time. Inspired by journalists Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn's book of the same name, Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide brings together video, websites, games, blogs and other educational tools to not only raise awareness of women's issues, but to also provide concrete steps to fight these problems and empower women. Change is possible, and you can be part of the solution."

If you haven't read the book or seen the documentary, I highly recommend them.  

So, I signed up to be a community advocate and put in a request to host a screening.  Click through the links to find out more information on Half the Sky and find out how you can get involved!
