Dear Society

Since we can't travel during this time, we will be revisiting our memories of our favorite vacation spots. From Australia to Japan, hear us talk about our favorite attractions and share some funny stories!

"Women can't be successful CEOs."

"Girls aren't supposed to build things or code programs. Those are jobs for men."

"She needs to watch her attitude; she's too assertive about politics."

These are all phrases commonly heard in business, STEM, and politics when describing strong, successful women. Today's episode features a wonderful guest speaker, Ellen Zhang, who is the co-founder of 2AM Post and the president of Women in Business in her high school. We will be sharing our personal experiences as girls in the fields of business, STEM, and politics, as well as empowering other women to step up and become more involved in fields they are passionate about.

Zoom, masks, and quarantine are some words we never thought we would be saying so much this year. On today's episode, we'll be discussing the impact that the coronavirus has had on students, especially the Class of 2021. 

Whether it be misguided questions regarding a culture's language, fallacies about personalities based on race, or even judgemental assumptions about appearance, inappropriate cultural stereotypes are on the rise. On today's episode, we discuss many of these cultural and racial stereotypes, hoping to debunk the myths and reveal the truth.
