“He wears a mask, and his face grows to fit it.” — George Orwell
The Mask You Live In, an award-winning film that sheds new light on American conceptions of masculinity, is the focus of a free, virtual, panel discussion to be presented by Vision 2020 on Thursday, February 25, from noon to 1 pm ET. Everyone who registers for the panel discussion will receive a link for free access to view the film online in the days leading up to the discussion.
Please save the date, plan to join us and invite your sons, brothers, fathers and friends. We will gain new insights together and build momentum for leadership shared equally among genders.
The Mask You Live In was created by The Representation Project, a Vision 2020 Allied Organization, and was written and directed by Vision 2020 Honoree Jennifer Siebel Newsom. The film challenges viewers to take a deeper look at the messages we send and receive about what it means to “be a man,” and the ways in which those messages constrain and harm us all.
Moderating the interactive discussion will be Peter J. Dean, Ph.D., founder and president, Leaders By Design, author of Cultivating Leaders, The Coachable Leader and Leadership for Everyone. The panel is comprised of leaders in the gender equality movement:
- Caroline Heldman, Ph.D., chair, critical theory and social justice, Occidental College, Los Angeles; vice president, research and insights, Geena Davis Institute for Gender in Media, a Vision 2020 Allied Organization
- Allen Riddick, Vision 2020 Delegate from Pennsylvania; director, supplier inclusion, Drexel University
- Michael Chamberlain, Vision 2020 Delegate from New York, vice president, community & convening programs, Catalyst; played pivotal in development of Catalyst’s Men Advocating Real Change (MARC)
