Our very own Amanda Levitt (RBI mod and blogger at http://www.fatbodypolitics.com) was a part of this HuffPost LIVE segment: Fat Stigma Starts Young.
Other notable contributors include Jenn Levya (http://fatsmartandpretty.com) and Rebecca Golden (http://butterbabe.blogspot.com), who speak authentically and with immense knowledge while combating comments like “oh but racism isn’t a thing anymore” and “oh but you HAVE to lose weight to be healthy”.
I’m also super impressed with the host Alicia Menendez for keeping everyone on-topic and providing a space for such important discourse. Brilliant.
Seriously, WATCH IT.
Hey! I did this yesterday. Jenn and I did really well considering we were the only fat activists on.
You did really great! I only cringed at the other folks on the panel a couple times, so that’s overall a lot better than how a lot of these roundtables usually go. :D
