The Social Justice Cooperative cordially invites you to
The Reg Day Stomp-Out-Sexism Movie Night!
What: video night featuring "rape is..."+ and "killing us softly 3"*
When: TONIGHT 7pm
Where: 4-370 **
Why: Because Rape, discrimination and sexual harrasment happen,
even at MIT!
and also
to answer the the questions of "what is 'a rape culture'?",
"how can images a.k.a. dots on a page harm women and even men?",
and "what can I do about this?", to take another step on the
path toward freeing yourself, all women in your life, and your
own sexuality from the corporate stranglehold, and because 1 in 8
women are raped in college, the first few months of college are
the highest risk for women, and 84% of women know their attacker.
How: videos interspersed with discussion
