Women and Advertising from Hienz on Vimeo.

Above is a powerful video that my professor in one of my classes shared with me. It is by Jean Kilborne who is recognized for her work in woman's media. This video in particular deals with who negatively women are portrayed, gender representation and touching upon self esteem. The media has the capability to change people's attitudes. It is very educational and speaks to an variety of people. After showing to children in classrooms, it gives them an opportunity to express themselves openly. It is filled with statistics that really make you think.
