"The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has been investigating the alleged discriminatory hiring practices used by studios that keep women and people of color from directing positions. The investigation is ongoing, but Deadline reported that "Every one of the major studios has received a charge contending that they failed to hire women directors." - espnW

It is not controversial to say that Hollywood has a gender-equality problem. However, these emerging female directors are working toward closing the gap.

This is how we do week in my house!

for my science obsessed kid.
That is the beauty of having educational options that fit EVERY families needs ( public school, charter schools, private schools, boarding schools, cyber school, homeschool, hybrid homeschool)... regardless of income, neighborhood, or the state they live in.

week is the perfect time to inform state lawmakers that parents r quite capable of choosing the BEST schooling option for their child/ren.

And for my fellow parents I just want to encourage you to keep fighting for the quality of education your kid deserves. Free of bullying, violence n drama, so they can focus on the important job of loving to learn.
No one will advocate for your kid better than u.

So how do you do ?

These r scary #"s. Financial literacy is a MUST for the future well being of our girls.
"In March, a report by the National Institute on Retirement Security found that women are 80 percent more likely than men to be impoverished at age 65 and older, while women between the ages of 75 to 79 are three times more likely than men to be living in poverty.

Women are lagging significantly behind men when it comes to financial knowledge and security, increasing their chances of falling into poverty.

“Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities--that's training or instruction--but is rather a making visible what is hidden as a seed...

One of the greatest problems of our time is that many are schooled but few are educated.”
― Thomas Moore
