Instructor: Art Echerd, Upper School Social Science For almost fifty years, Myanmar has been one of the world’s most isolated countries. Its political and economic isolation, which has been the deliberate policy of the military junta that has ruled that nation since 1962, now seems to be coming to an end.

Location: Home of Barby Speight White ’83 – 114 Belle Meade Boulevard Date(s): Wednesday, February 8 OR Wednesday, February 22 Time: 6:00 – 8:30 p.m. Cost: $40 per person Join us for a free screening of Miss Representation, a film that explores the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America and challenges the limited portrayal for powerful women as encouraged by the mainstream media. Miss Representation brings together some of America’s most influential women in politics, news and entertainment, including Condoleezza Rice, Nancy Pelosi, Katie Couric, Rachel Maddow, Margaret Cho, Rosario Dawson and Gloria Steinem to give audiences an inside look at the media’s message and depiction of women. Miss Representation takes the stand that the media is portraying women’s primary values as their youth, beauty and sexuality – rather than their capacity as leaders. With myriad video clips portraying women in a highly charged sexual manner, juxtaposed with women of historical significance, the viewer becomes acutely aware of how media plays an enormous role in how a girl views herself.
