In this first episode of our season devoted to creating a gender-equal world, Marianne Schnall explores how new paradigms of power and leadership could help us achieve equality. Beginning with wisdom from her archives of conversations with Gloria Steinem, Ai-Jen Poo, Jane Fonda, Stacey Abrams, Barbara Lee, Anita Hill, Wangari Maathai, and Elizabeth Lesser, Marianne then speaks with special guest activist, educator, and leader in social justice Brittany Packnett Cunningham who shares her insights on an abundant view of power (10:38), differences in leadership across gender identities (16:54), her own personal leadership style (16:51), how to accelerate change (22:32), and what support Black women need (24:21).  For more information about Marianne Schnall, please visit MarianneSchnall.com For more information about Tandem, please visit tandemequality.orgTo learn more about Brittany’s work, please visit BrittanyPacknett.com.To watch Brittany’s viral Ted Talk, click here.Learn more about your ad choices.
