Oppressive Weight: The Intersection of Diet Culture and Patriarchy

In this sermon, Harmony member Julie Gebhart will explore the history of the “ideal female form” and how this ideal has been used to maintain power over women throughout recent history. Diet culture will be examined from a historical and personal lense, while listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own experiences with diet culture.
