"Writing books and creating media for social change has given profound meaning to my life."
Dr. Feldman is a Visiting Scholar in Gender Studies and Sexuality at Northwestern University.
Ann Feldman’s career has been spent maneuvering in and out of disparate communities, listening to and showcasing their stories through books, radio and TV documentaries. Dr. Feldman is a curious outsider, hungry to know other cultures, needs and wants, values and fears.
The driving force behind her writing and social justice media is to find and showcase lost voices – of the marginalized, underrepresented and silenced.
Building Communities of Trust is a roadmap to help future leaders create community projects for social change. The book and case studies connect thirty years of Ann Feldman’s media for social change with social justice actions and questions from future leaders.
