We have every musical genre in this show, which makes it even more appealing, because we have all this good stuff from every type of music, from soul to blues to rock and roll to the early punk music. “There are fictional bands in the series, as well as people who really existed, so we have Alice Cooper and David Bowie, and some cool flashbacks to soul singers like Tony Bennett and Ruth Brown.” And there is no shortage of iconic styles in the series, from the outrageous to the glamorous.

Give your audience a few moments to get to know each other in pairs or small groups by asking them to share their name, favorite plant-based food (it can be a recipe or just an ingredient), and what they’d like to learn today. 2 • 521 pledges • 3 monthly challenges • 100% of survey • Building community respondents plan to in neighborhoods continue their behavior • Over 54 community • 7 local leaders engagements • 5 neighborhoods and • 270+ followers on NKY social media Take a moment to discuss the Year of Living Sustainably campaign. It’s a multi-faceted campaign that hopes to engage residents with the goals outlined in the 2018 Green Cincinnati Plan and foster community building and local leadership. Monthly challenge: Each month we ask residents to participate in monthly ‘neighborhood’ challenges that help make Cincy more sustainable, equitable, and resilient. This month we’re partnering with La Soupe to see which neighborhood can sign up the most drivers for their ‘Food Rescue US’ App. Learn more at https://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/oes/a-year-of-living-sustainably/take-action/commit- to-one-sustainable-behavior-each-month/. Pledges: Each month (and at the end of this presentation) we ask people to commit to one behavior or action that will reduce their impact on the planet. At the end of 30 days they’ll receive a survey asking them to evaluate the action (did they complete it, what did they like about it, what advice do they have for others trying to do the same, AND do they plan to continue it) and one pledger will receive a prize!

  • Holding up Half the Sky Global Narratives of Girls at Risk and Celebrity Philanthropy
    Holding Up Half the Sky Global Narratives of Girls at Risk and Celebrity Philanthropy Angharad Valdivia a Abstract: In this article I explore the Half the Sky (HTS) phenomenon, including the documentary shown on the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) network in 2014. I explore how the girls in whose name the HTS movement exists are repre- sented in relation to Nicholas Kristoff and six celebrity advocates. This analysis foregrounds Global North philanthropy’s discursive use of Global South girls to advance a neoliberal approach that ignores structural forces that account for Global South poverty. The upbeat use of the concept of opportunities interpellates the audience into participating in individualized approaches to rescuing girls. Ulti- mately girls are spoken for while celebrities gain more exposure and therefore increase their brand recognition. Keywords: Global South, Media Studies, neoliberalism, philitainment, representation, white savior b Girls figure prominently as a symbol in global discourses of philanthropy. The use of girls from the Global South lends authority and legitimacy to Western savior neoliberal impulses, in which the logic of philanthropy shifts responsibility for social issues from governments to individuals and corpo- rations through the marketplace, therefore help and intervention are “encouraged through privatization and liberalization” (Shome 2014: 119). Foregrounding charitable activities becomes an essential component of celebrity branding and corporate public relations that seek representation of their actions as cosmopolitan morality and global citizenry. Focusing on the Half the Sky (HTS) phenomenon that culminated in a documentary by Maro Chermayeff (2012) shown on the PBS network in 2014, in this article I examine the agency and representation of six celebrity advocates in relation to the girls in whose name the HTS movement exists.
