Scout Bratt Fights For Autonomy Locally and Internationally

Scout Bratt fights for autonomy and resource availability through all facets of their work, as both a sexual health educator and an advocate for Palestinian liberation. For their segment of "This Is What Chicago Sounds Like," Scout dives into their journey as an organizer for Palestinian liberation, their involvement with Jewish Voice for Peace, why they are passionate about sexual health knowledge and the creativity of Chicago social justice organizers. Bratt’s work also centers on providing comprehensive sex education in Chicago Public Schools, working to engage with what youth express they want and need to learn as opposed to what adults think they should know. Their time in the city has reshaped their ideas for the potential of what mobilizing for a cause can look like. This is what their Chicago sounds like.
