Wednesday, November 30^th

7:00 pm – 9:00 pm

Unitarian Universalist Society of South Suffolk

28 Brentwood Road, Bay Shore, NY

Women no longer need to be defined by anyone—but first you must free yourself. 

The spiritual path will lead you to a place where you no longer can be constrained or defined by the culture, family, tribe or nation you find yourself a part of.

Mid-Suffolk Now’s Women and Spirituality committee invites you to an evening of self exploration and conversation about women’s lives and the benefits of your spiritual journey.

Come join NOW Mid-Suffolk as we   present the important documentary/lecture "Killing Us Softly,"

http://www.mediaed.org/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?key=241&preadd=action 

featuring feminist activist and educator Jean Kilbourne.  This 45 minute film is the 4th edition of her classic analysis of the role of sexism in advertising and other mass media, fully updated to account for the latest trends and information concerning body image, the harm done to boys and men raised in a culture of violence, the objectification and 'silencing' of women and girls, how advertisers create consumer anxiety and insecurity in order to sell 'junk food companionship,' the commodification of sexuality, and the devaluing of the feminine.  

Chris McDougal, Assistant Professor of Sociology at Suffolk Community College, will present the film and lead a discussion afterwards.
