FILM: FREE FOR TEACHERS 'Out of the Question: Women, Media, and the Art of Inquiry'
This e-mail was forwarded to me from Elizabeth Stanley, looks interesting and a few copies are free for teachers...
Out of the Question: Women, Media, and the Art of Inquiry is a new 38-minute documentary by award-winning filmmaker Naomi McCormack. It charts the careers of five women and their experiences as researchers and audience members for the new media of their era. The film provides a compelling window into gendered cultures of work, media, and the social sciences in 1940s America, addressing issues of both historical and contemporary significance. It is supported by a website that includes teaching resources as well as new research on pioneering women in communication and media studies (www.outofthequestion.org). The film would make a valuable addition to undergraduate and graduate courses in communication, women’s studies, sociology, and American studies, and to library video collections in those areas.
Thanks to generous funding from the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication, a limited number of free copies of the film are available for educational use. If you would like a copy, please send a request to lauren.archer@colorado.edu.
