"I Call The Shots" Empowerment Campaign Launch Party

“I Call The Shots” Empowerment Campaign is a national empowerment campaign that explores the stereotypes of girls and women and redefines how we want to be portrayed in society. We are empowering girls to combat race and gender stereotypes and make sense of the conflicting messages we see in media and society today.  Every woman and girl has the right to be herself, feel appreciated for her contributions, express herself, and obtain the confidence needed to experience success in life.

“I Call The Shots” Empowerment Campaign is organizing individuals to unite around a common goal to stop race and gender stereotypes. This movement will spark meaningful action and create social change.

Here are a few campaign activities that we are excited to work with you on:

• Women and girls speaking out, telling their stories and influencing change
• Supporting women as leaders
• Schools and youth groups can utilize “I Call The Shots” Curriculum to educate youth and inspire students to make a change
• Women and girls challenge anything that creates negative stereotypes about them (music, advertising, TV Shows, videos, etc)
• Women and girls are creating new forms of media to share with the world that reflects our attitudes, beliefs, and character

We will be officially launching the campaign on January 1, 2012. Our Campaign Launch Party will feature speakers, organizational leaders, media partners and girls and young women from the Metro Atlanta area. Join us Saturday December 17, 2011 at 6:00 pm to get a sneak peak at our campaign tools. See you there!
