Screen The Bystander Moment on Your Campus this Semester!
If you’re looking for resources to help raise awareness about the cultural norms that contribute to sexual violence on your campus, be sure to check out our bestselling video The Bystander Moment: Transforming Rape Culture at Its Roots, featuring acclaimed educator and author Jackson Katz.
In the film, Katz discusses his experience as a key architect of one of the most widely implemented bystander education approaches in the country and provides a vivid glimpse into the deeply gendered cultural norms, media narratives, and peer-culture dynamics that contribute to sexual violence. The result is a powerful educational tool that’s ideal for classroom, campus, and community screenings.
