SUMMARY:She Said: Breaking the Story that Helped Ignite #MeToo
DESCRIPTION:Jodi Kantor is one of the Pulitzer Prize-winning reporters who broke the news of Harvey Weinstein’s sexual harassment and abuse for The New York Times. \nKantor will share their investigation and its consequences for the #MeToo movement and will take us for the first time into the very heart of this social shift\, reliving in real-time what it took to get the story and giving an up-close portrait of the forces that hindered and spurred change. \nHer talk will describe the surprising journeys of those who spoke up–for the sake of other women\, for future generations\, and for themselves–and so changed us all. Both revelatory and insightful\, she will not only address “how did we get here?” but “where do we go now?”

SUMMARY:The Years That Matter Most: How College Makes or Breaks US
DESCRIPTION:Paul Tough is the bestselling author of “How Children Succeed” and a contributor to The New York Times Magazine and This American Life. In his new book\, “The Years That Matter Most\,” Tough describes the way higher education in America can both help and hinder young people searching for better opportunities. The book tells the stories of several remarkable students\, including some for whom college acts as a powerful engine of social mobility. But Tough also reveals the sometimes hidden ways that our higher education system favors children of wealth and privilege and holds back striving young Americans from modest backgrounds. \nThis event is part of our “Spotlight on Education Series” which is sponsored by Platinum Sponsor\, MassMutual.
