Help? 1. Based on the documentary 'Killing Us Softly 4' by Jean Kilbourne and the reading 'The Beguiling: Glamour in/as Platformed Cultural Production' by Alison Hearn & Sarah Banet-Weiser, how does advertising shape society’s definition of beauty, and what are the consequences of these standards on women’s self-perception and body image? Compare the traditional forms of media that Kilbourne critiques to the contemporary social media platforms discussed by Hearn and Banet-Weiser. How do these platforms continue or alter the role of glamour and beauty in commodifying women’s identities? 3. Dr. Jackson Katz argues that violence against women is not just a women’s issue, but a men’s issue that requires male intervention and accountability. Consider how systemic violence against women is embedded in both personal relationships and global economic systems. What role do men play in perpetuating or preventing forms of violence and exploitation? In what ways can men actively participate in combating these issues at local and international levels? Draw connections between the readings/video materials and personal experiences.
