Misogynistic Microaggressions | Sahana Mathiarasan | TEDxYouth@UrsulineAcademy

Have you ever made fun of a girl for liking something, for example, Kpop? When you first hear the word misogyny, you think of an outward and aggressive hatred of women, but, it can also take much smaller forms, imbedding itself in everyday conversations and eroding a girl’s feelings of confidence and self worth from a young age. So the next time you make fun of a girl for what she likes, think deeper about why you have these beliefs and how this impacts her. -- Sahana is a 17 year old first-generation Indian-American and a senior at Stuart Country Day School in Princeton, NJ. She strives to be politically active and socially aware, regularly attending marches and protests for causes that she believes in. She is the head of her school’s speech and debate team and actively voices her opinion on current social issues such as misogyny, racism, and classism. Being the head of her school’s diversity committee, she attends diversity conferences, strives to engage in meaningful discussions with her peers, and continuously educates both herself and her community on diversity, inclusion, and equity. She is currently organizing her school’s first Culture and Arts Fair to showcase the multitude of cultures in her school. She is also the head of her school’s medical club, loves science, and wants to major in Public Health in college in order to better the American healthcare system in the future to ensure that it is fair and accessible to everyone. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
