Summary:
This series consists of the following seven videos:
>>> Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats & Rhymes -- A riveting examination of masculinity, sexism, and homophobia in hip-hop culture. Delivering a self-described "loving critique" of rap music, director Byron Hurt -- a former star college quarterback, longtime hip-hop fan, and now gender violence prevention educator -- pays tribute to the power and creativity of hip-hop while challenging the rap music industry to take responsibility for glamorizing destructive, deeply conservative stereotypes of manhood.
>>> Killing Us Softly 3: Advertising's Image of Women -- This most recent update of Jean Kilbourne's pioneering Killing Us Softly series features a vast array of current images from magazines and television and continues the ground-breaking critical analysis of advertising's depiction of women.
>>> Game Over: Gender, Race & Violence in Video Games -- This film examines the nature and consequences of simulated violence, and encourages high school and college students to think critically about how gender and race are depicted in the video and computer games they play.
>>> Tough Guise: Violence, Media & the Crisis in Masculinity (full length) -- In this innovative analysis, pioneering anti-violence educator Jackson Katz argues that we need to understand violence in American schools -- including school shootings, bullying, and teen dating violence -- as part of an ongoing crisis in masculinity reinforced by mass media imagery.
>>>
Wrestling With Manhood: Boys, Bullying & Battering (full-length) -- While this critically-acclaimed film considers the persistent appeal of professional wrestling, its larger concern is how American popular culture idealizes pathological forms of masculinity that encourage sexism, homophobia, gender violence, and bullying.
>>> Boys to Men? -- In this moving follow-up to the critically-acclaimed Hoop Dreams, award-winning filmmaker Frederick Marx continues his exploration of the lives of ordinary young men and the extraordinary challenges they face. Boys to Men? -- the second in a trilogy about masculinity in America -- trains its focus on the pressures and expectations faced by a diverse group of young teenage males.
>>> War Zone -- What is it like to walk down the street and be heckled, harassed, followed, and touched by men? Filmmaker Maggie Hadleigh-West armed herself with a video camera to show us, confronting the men who abuse her in this fascinating and critically-acclaimed documentary.
