Tewatha Goorhuis-Muller is a youth worker, coach, the woman behind the beautiful blogs thisgirlsblackbook and thisgirlcancook. She is a writer and expert in how the internet influences youngsters.

She has written one herself and you can find it here . The title of today’s encounter is Our identity is not limited and is part of the overall topic elevating a new generation that is feminist, anti-racist and empathetic. We will speak about blogs, writing a multicultural children’s book, find out who has been Tewatha's Salt and a lot more.
Host: Stella Saliari
My guests and I contest and deconstruct narratives, and passionately recreate with the aim to change systems and perceptions. We want to elevate a generation that is feminist, antiracist and empathetic. Our conversations flow into each other and leave room for the unexpected.
Salt is love, community, solidarity, a collective, healing, creating. It is intersectional, full of stories, movement and change. It insists, evolves and transforms. It is a commitment because as Kimberlé Crenshaw says “women come from a whole range of backgrounds. If our visions of peace don’t include these differences, then our peace will be partial.’’
