    Episode 6: Women's Representation in Media

    Episode 6 is out now! Join us for a conversation with special guest Hénia Belalia about the effects of underrepresentation of women and girls* in media, and what we can do as young people to remind ourselves of our worth and our value. Hénia also reminds us of the power of our voices, and how they can be used to challenge people, corporations, and institutions who uphold gender stereotypes and unrealistic beauty standards. You don’t want to miss it! Hénia is a French-Algerian educator, theater director, and grassroots organizer. She has worked with youth, and young girls* in particular, for about 20 years, Hénia loves to spend time in nature, get lost in books, dance, cook, and live her best life as an auntie. In our conversation, she offered up some amazing wisdom as well as advice for young girls* navigating toxic media culture.  Fun fact: Hénia ran the summer program that inspired this podcast! Girls* in Action was only possible because of her mentorship and dedication to youth. Thank you, Hénia!❤️ Find us on instagram @girlsinaction.sf Hénia’s recommendations of Instagram accounts to follow:  @mama_maiz  @thehijabichronicles  @zvoicescollective @forcetobereckonedwithmag
