Sexism|Cinema returns to the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema on 9/6/2023 at 7:30 PM with a screening and discussion of Maid in Manhattan (Wayne Wang, 2002). Our guest speaker is Dr. Nadia Flores from the Department of Sociology.
We encourage all members of the TTU and Lubbock community to attend!
Fifty plus years ago, the term “sexism” was coined. In light of this historical marker, Alamo Drafthouse and TTU invite you to an engaged scholarship film series which considers how sexism is embedded, endorsed, and/or challenged in the cinema. How far have we come? How far do we have to go? We have selected films with female protagonists to view and discuss at Alamo Drafthouse, Lubbock. The films will be followed by a 30-minute discussion led by TTU faculty members and expert guest speakers. Mark your calendars now!
Thank you, organizers Michael Borshuk, Don Lavigne, Christy Rogers, Elizabeth Sharp, Jessica Smith, Dana Weiser, & Allison Whitney
