Synopsis

It’s time to raise the bar. There are more months in the year than countries in the world where women and men have equal rights. This imbalance is the cause of the most pressing challenges we face today.

Angry about sexism and misogyny and what you personally have endured? Afraid the world won’t get its act together in time to save itself?

Call Me A Woman combines Laurie Levin’s personal story, including sexual assault, years of research, personal interviews, global studies, and activism to ramp up awareness and change perceptions of how we view what happens to girls and women world-wide.

Inside you’ll discover:

• The most important thing parents can do to change the world
• Our unconscious habits that perpetuate inequality
• Inspiring stories to shift resentment to empathy, hope, and action
• The 7 Habits of Equality to speed our way to gender equality and peace

Personal interviews with: Lynn Povich, first woman senior editor Newsweek magazine; Maxine Clark, founder Build-A-Bear Workshop; Gloria Feldt, former CEO and President Planned Parenthood Federation of America, NY Times Best-Selling Author; Mark Levin, biotech industry leader, founder, and CEO; Zaron Burnett III, investigative journalist and writer.

Equality can become our reality when each of us comes to terms with how we uphold inequality. The long-standing domination of men over women is reflected in our language, traditions, choices, votes, and what we do and don't pay attention to.

Call Me A Woman is a call to action and roadmap that will speed our way to gender equality and a more peaceful world. After all, women are half of every race, religion, ethnic group, economic class, and nation.

Become part of the solution and create a safer and more just world for girls and women. When women rise, we take the world with us.
