Miss Representation Film Screening & Discussion
Written and directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, Miss Representationexposes how mainstream media and culture contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America.
The film draws back a curtain to reveal a glaring reality we live with every day but fail to see - how the media's limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls makes it difficult for women to feel powerful and achieve leadership positions.
