“That Could Be Your Sister” was created by Radio Rookie Temitayo Fagbenle, who has reported extensively on the problem of sexual cyberbullying (http://www.wnyc.org/shows/rookies/articles/radio-rookies/2012/dec/28/sex...). After her first radio story aired, Temitayo and Radio Rookies created a Facebook page and Twitter handle to educate and spread positive activism around the issue. Now, as part of the Project:Connect Summer Youth Programming, Radio Rookies and Global Kids will host a “That Could Be Your Sister Design Challenge” for 50 NYC teenagers to take the movement one step further to envision a digital tool that would allow for better reporting and awareness of sexual cyberbullying and provide resources and support for victims. Teens will spend a day working in teams to seek solutions for a problem that leaves many girls feeling isolated and alone.
