About Me

Nora Dye is Senior Program Coordinator at the Pro-Choice Public Education Project.  Through Wanderlust, she is thrilled to be combining her two passions, exploring the world and the ways people are advocating for reproductive justice and riding her bike. She is currently a graduate student at NYU studying the Politics of Sexual Freedom. Last summer, she took a solo bicycle trip from New Jersey to San Francisco called Wanderlust: A coast to coast exploration of politics, sex, and culture. On her journey she met with and listened to advocates, sexuality educators, and others who are working for reproductive autonomy and combating negative images of female sexuality. More information about her trip can be found at Wanderlust with Rhonda.

Shelby Knox grew up as a conservative Southern Baptist in Texas turned activist and documentary film subject. She recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Political Science. Throughout her college career, Shelby traveled across the nation to speak to young people about the importance of comprehensive sex education and the power of youth activism, using the film that carries her name, The Education of Shelby Knox, as a vehicle for discussion. She currently lives in New York City and is a full time speaker and organizer working with progressive organizations to promote sex education, women's rights, and youth empowerment.
