Brie Mathers: Power, Sex, and Money

Brie Mathers discusses how the representation and treatment of women has changed through time, and how a more equal world would be a better world for all

In this cutting edge talk on the history of power, sex, and money, Brie Mathers takes a look at how the outward representation of women has changed drastically over the last 10,000 years. She discusses how the world would greatly benefit from not only a better representation of women, but also a better treatment of them. She asks what we can each do to help our global society return to a place of empathy and compassion.

“The status of women and girls in a country is a stronger predictor of success than its GDP.”

Mathers discusses:

  • How we’ve been taught to perceive women and girls a certain way through cultural norms and expectations
  • Why a world in which women and men are equal would be a world with a better standard of living for all
