Nothing has been more helpful in crafting my Senior Seminar research paper than the work of @NaomiMcDougallJ . Thank you for your witty and honest commentary in The Wrong Kind Of Women, and for being a changemaker and inspiration for #womeninfilm
Looking for some weekend 💙 for my @artesdaughters fundraiser
I’m directing a short film with some young girls & we need a few quid/bucks to make that happen. We need more women in film & you can be part of that

@philosophytweet Laura Mulvey; a pioneer of feminist film theory who first described the portrayal of women in film as a consequence of Hollywood being overwhelmingly male. Her essay ‘Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema’ has become a very influential piece of feminist philosophy.
Every season, the Toronto Women Film Festival focuses on female-driven stories, independent female directors, producers, writers, actresses, cinematographers, editors, and all-female artists contributing to the language of cinema as women in film.
"When someone constantly puts you down, leaves you feeling like you can't do anything right, or makes you feel worthless/bad about yourself just know you did nothing wrong & that this isn't love, it's emotional abuse." ~Unknown

.@Festival_Cannes opened this week & while their track record w/ including female filmmakers leaves a lot of room for improvement, women directors will be debuting films that are eagerly anticipated. @TheWrap reported on #Cannes push for gender-parity. https://t.co/PGa5pdSpfv
@CSHSeniorSem I think resiliency is an appropriate word to describe Trevor. I think another word to describe him is inspiring. Seeing all of the obstacles he had to face as a young child while supporting his family makes him a true hero. #Sensemchat
@CSHSeniorSem Trevor Noah represents truth as a part of social healing through the unique, innocent perspective of a child. The stories of his childhood detail the atrocities of apartheid while simultaneously sharing stories of hope in his community. #Sensemchat
Michelle Williams on Kelly Reichardt: “Because she makes films infrequently, she doesn’t have health insurance through the DGA. So, she has a theater named after her at the Sorbonne, but she has to teach [at Bard College] to get health insurance.” https://t.co/dz8adaDGPC
If the Court overturns Roe, it will fall on our nation’s elected officials at all levels of government to protect a woman’s right to choose.
And it will fall on voters to elect pro-choice officials this November.
On #LabourDay, let's call for:
- Parental leave
- Flexible work hours
- Gender-sensitive policies
- Equal pay
Because economies that work for women work for everyone.
#MayDay
#MentalHealthAwarenessMonth starts today!
Which means it's time to check in with yourself, because mental health is just as important as physical health.
When we bring peace to someone who is suffering physically or spiritually, when we spend some time listening, being present, or consoling someone, we encounter Jesus who repeats to us through the eyes of all those who are weighed down by the trials of life: Peace be with you!
There is an imbalance between the extent to which women & girls are impacted by global challenges and their involvement in finding solutions. We need to accelerate gender equality to address this.
