Redefining Women’s Roles Through Film
#WomensStudies #WomenTruckers #WomensEmpowerment #Feminism
Watch this engaging conversation on “Redefining Women’s Roles Through Film” with Liane Brandon, New Day Films co-founder and director of Sometimes I Wonder Who I Am, Amy C. Reid, director of Long Haulers, and Dr. Shilyh Warren, Associate Dean of Graduate Studies and Associate Professor of Visual and Performing Arts & Film Studies at the University of Texas, Dallas. The conversation will be moderated by Harleen Singh (Drawn Together: Comics, Diversity and Stereotypes).
We discuss how “Sometimes I Wonder Who I Am” and “Long Haulers” (about women truck drivers) challenge traditional gender roles of women in the workplace and at home.
