It’s here! Our first episode after a five-year hiatus!
Hillary kicks us off with a personal story about what it’s been like to watch her daughter experience unwanted male attention for the first time. After one particularly troubling incident, Hillary looks into how her daughter’s middle school teaches consent… and what she discovers throws her for a loop.
Tune in to join Hillary on her misadventures in public school sex ed.
Sex ed + consent resources
Yes, lots of schools are doing a shoddy job at teaching kids about consent if they’re doing it at all — but there are also some organizations and individuals who are doing innovative work on the subject. Here’s a short list to get you started.
• SafeBAE (our next episode is about these folks!)
• SIECUS (Sex Ed for Social Change): Sex Ed Profiles by State
• Sex, Teens, and Everything in Between by Shafia Zaloom
• You Know, Sex by Cory Silverberg and Fiona Smyth
About that artwork
We thought this special relaunch episode called for special artwork and we’re thrilled by the image that the talented Lindsay Stripling created for us. Lindsay also did the art for Here Lies Me, Hillary’s fiction show about middle school.
