Sexism|Cinema is a feminist film series. In 1965, the term "sexism" was coined. In light of this historical marker, Sexism|Cinema began in 2015 as film series which considers how sexism is embedded, endorsed, and/or challenged in the cinema. How far have we come in more than fifty years? How far do we have to go? Selected films feature women-identified protagonists, and our in-person screenings are followed by a 30-minute discussion led by expert guest speakers or Texas Tech faculty.
On November 2nd at 7:30 PM, we will be screening the dark comedy Election, starring Reese Witherspoon and Matthew Broderick. After the film, Dr. Christy Rogers of TTU Human Development & Family Sciences will provide comments and lead discussion following the film. Join the conversation this Wednesday!
