Save the Date
CCFC's 6th Summit: Consuming Kids: The Sexualization of Children and Other Commercial Calamities April 3-5, 2008 Boston, MA
As in year's past, the 2008 summit will combine activism with education. Since 2001 we have been bringing together distinguished scholars, activists, parents, and educators to talk about how marketing undermines children's health and well-being and what we can do about it. The year's summit will feature a special focus on how marketing contributes to the sexualization of young children.
Confirmed speakers include:
*Gail Dines, co-author, Pornography: The Production and Consumption of Inequality
*Joe Kelly, author, Dads and Daughters
*Jean Kilbourne, author, Can't Buy My Love
*Diane Levin, author, Remote Control Childhood
*Susan Linn, author Consuming Kids
