Jes Baker, The Militant Baker coming to MCC for the Enough is Enough Campaign on Monday April 6, 2015


 
Monday, April 6 is the first day of the 6th Annual Enough is Enough Campaign.  This year the Keynote Speaker will be Jes Baker.  In collaboration with the Campus Activities Board (CAB) and The Civility Project: REAL people.  REAL action.  REAL change., MCC is proud to welcome Jes to our campus.


In "Change Your World, Not Your Body": Baker explores the historical evolution behind our current idyllic body type, the stigma surrounding mental illness, and 10 ways that we can individually re-frame the way we perceive ourselves and others. She encourages each person to “change your world, not your body,” uses empirical data to explore the correlation between weight and health, and discusses the “Health At Every Size” movement. Baker shows that by learning to love yourself as you are, you can join in a revolution that directly improves our societal structure on a global level. Come ready to challenge the notion that beauty is exclusive in this powerful, passionate and progressive presentation.
