DESCRIPTION:Free screening\n\nThe Bro Code, How Contemporary Culture Creates Sexist 
 Men\n\nIn MEF's powerful new release, The Bro Code, filmmaker Thomas Keith 
 takes aim at the forces in male culture that condition boys and men to 
 dehumanize and disrespect women. Keith breaks down a range of contemporary 
 media forms that are saturated with sexism -- movies and music videos that 
 glamorize misogyny; pornography that trades in the brutalization of women; 
 comedy routines that make fun of sexual assault; and a slate of men's 
 magazines and cable TV shows whose sole purpose is to revel in reactionary 
 myths of American manhood. The message he uncovers in virtually every 
 corner of our entertainment culture is clear: It's not only normal -- but 
 cool -- for boys and men to control and humiliate women. By showing how 
 there's nothing natural or inevitable about this mentality, and by setting 
 it against the terrible reality of men's violence against women in the real 
 world, The Bro Code challenges young people to step up and fight back 
 against the idea that being a real man means disrespecting women.
