talking

I will be the keynote speaker at La Leche League of Georgia's convention in Atlanta in the spring.

I'll be giving three talks:

The Politics of Breastfeeding: How government and big business impact the very personal decision as to whether a woman will nurse her child, and how everyday mothers can advocate for breastfeeding in their communities, nationally, and around the world.

Roots & Wings: A discussion of why babies need babying, bigger kids need the opportunity to learn independence, and why modern American parents seem to get this backwards.

Why Breastfeeding Matters: A factual breakdown of the latest research into how breastfeeding benefits babies, women, and public health.
