Film Screening of Miss Representation (presented by The Women’s Empowerment Project and Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara)

May 19, 2019 @ 5:00 am PDT

The Women’s Empowerment Project and
Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara
present a Film Screening of
Miss Representation

Sunday, May 19, 5 pm to 715 pm
Jefferson Hall
Unitarian Society of Santa Barbara
1535 Santa Barbara Street

This film offers an inside look at the media and its message through provocative interviews with well-known figures such as Nancy Pelosi, Katie Couric, Rachel Maddow, Gloria Steinem, and Condoleezza Rice, as well as personal stories from teenage girls. By promoting the idea that women’s primary value lies in beauty and sexuality, the media makes it difficult for women to obtain leadership positions and for girls to reach their full potential. Striking illustrations of advertising images indelibly drive the point home.

Doors open at 5:00. Film starts at 5:15. Discussion in small groups will follow the film screening. We will finish at 7:15 (before dark).

Everyone is Welcome!! We hope to see you there!
