Davies doesn’t know how to handle his pupils’ burgeoning interest in feminism and so he does nothing. Her best friend Claudia (Lauren Tsai) seems to be cut from the same cloth (both were designated INTJ personality types on the Myers-Briggs test). However, I love that in the movie we get more of John (though him being played by Clark Gregg doesn’t hurt on that! We do have a few POC who play a role in this movement (I think one is black and one is latinx if I am remembering correctly) and they definitely explain to Viv how even though she is experiencing sexism like them, it’s entirely different for her being a white girl. And now it’s totally acceptable that Mitchell Wilson and his friends interrupt girls in class to instruct them to make sandwiches.

If you have a boss, tell them you’d like to improve your writing skills, learn about the book publishing process, and improve communication skills, and see if they’d be willing to cover the course cost for you.In February 2019, it was announced Amy Poehler would direct the film, from a screenplay by Tamara Chestna, and serve as a producer under her Paper Kite Productions banner, with Netflix distributing. You can attend live or send your work/questions and watch the recording later, whenever it’s convenient for you. The movie has a lot of discussion about if a group can do something and actually forms a group, but it doesn’t have anyone really doing something major without Viv being somewhat involved.

Moxie Book Review | Common Sense Media

But the aspects of Emma and Claudia trying to complain about his son could really have been done so well. Vivian is given a firsthand lesson in the problematic aspects of "white feminism" and learns how to take the extra steps needed to ensure complete inclusion of all women (not just the white girls). Not only does she receive an outpouring of support from the group, but there's an important person in the audience for her story as well.This book definitely tackles male privilege and I wouldn’t be surprised if some of my reading friends who are men are uncomfortable while reading this, but I think that’s why it’s so beneficial to a variety of populations.
