Elizabeth Plank started her journey in journalism after being outraged with a women’s boxing controversy in the 2012 Olympics. From there she realized that she could make the biggest impact through this medium. John Liz and Alaa as they discuss objectivity, her foray into writing a book on the current view of masculinity, not being complicit but remembering how much power you have as a citizen of the world, and much more.
Being At The Table means:
“Active listening. Really listening to someone, not just waiting for them to be done so that you can say what you want to say. I feel such a privilege to get to listen to so many different people in my fields of work, and it is a real honor for me to get to do that” – Elizabeth Plank

- Why she felt the need to write a book about mindful masculinity and gender perspective
- The power of language in the media and how it changes the focus of what is important
- The varying definitions of what a feminist is
- How microaggressions are not truly micro
- Viewing success in journalism through the metric of mental health
- And More…
