The Bystander Moment – Transforming Rape Culture at its Roots
Video, 2018
The Bystander Moment, featuring leading anti-violence educator and author Jackson Katz, explores the role played by bystanders – especially friends, teammates, classmates, and co-workers-in perpetuating sexual harassment, sexual assault, and other forms of gender violence. In riveting analysis illustrated with archival footage and clips from news, sports, and entertainment media, Katz gives special attention to peer culture dynamics – especially male peer culture dynamics across race and ethnicity – that help to normalize sexism and misogyny while silencing other men in the face of abuse. The Bystander Moment also stresses the crucial importance of appealing to people not as potential perpetrators or passive spectators, but as active bystanders and potential leaders who have a positive role to play in challenging and changing the sexist cultural norms that too often lead to gender violence. The result is an indispensable educational tool in the ongoing struggle to prevent sexism and misogyny and promote gender equality. A study guide is available at http://bystandermoment.org/pdfs/bystander-moment-study-guide.pdf.
