Since
1995, Ophira Edut has lectured at colleges and conferences nationwide.
She's covered everything from body image to media-making, women
to websites, pop stars to six-pointed stars. Comes with slides,
interactivity and punchy graphics to entertain your overstimulated,
short-attention-span troops.

Body
Outlaws: How to Love Your Body Through Thick AND Thin
What is healthy body image? In what ways do body image problems go beyond eating
disorders? How are body image issues tied to culture and other factors? Edut
discusses why body image is a multicultural women's health issue, sharing excerpts
from her anthology Body Outlaws. (Workshops
also available)
Mediarology:
Breaking Down the Media
In a media-driven age where "image is everything," how
can we use the media as a tool, instead of being used as tools of
the media? Drawing on a decade of independent magazine, book, and
web publishing, Edut shares how to make your idea into an world-changing
enterprise.
The
Jewess is Loose!
What does it mean to be a Jewish American woman today? How can Jewish
women use our unique approach to activism and leadership to contribute
to the peace movement? As an Israeli-American who grew up in a largely
Arab-American Detroit community, Edut talks about her struggle to
preserve both her Israeli identity AND the Arab-Jewish alliances
she's made in America.
