Feminist Frequency » WAM! http://www.feministfrequency.com Conversations with Pop Culture; feminist analysis of race, gender, class, sexuality and privilege in pop culture Thu, 26 Aug 2010 04:22:15 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 WAM! 2010 Video and Playlist http://www.feministfrequency.com/2010/03/wam-2010-playlist/ http://www.feministfrequency.com/2010/03/wam-2010-playlist/#comments Fri, 26 Mar 2010 23:11:40 +0000 Anita http://www.feministfrequency.com/?p=324 I had such a fantastic time presenting at Women, Action and Media (WAM) in Los Angeles on March 25th, 2010.  I curated a show of online videos including remixes, vlogs, vids and short documentaries made by women.  Staying true with WAM‘s mission, these videos represent women taking action through media to talk about issues important to their lives and talking back to the media that so often misrepresents, stereotypes and victimizes us.

Below is the playlist of the videos I showed:

Event in Santa Monica, CA http://www.feministfrequency.com/2010/03/wam-event-in-santa-monica-ca/ http://www.feministfrequency.com/2010/03/wam-event-in-santa-monica-ca/#comments Wed, 10 Mar 2010 19:50:04 +0000 Anita http://www.feministfrequency.com/?p=309 March is certainly a busy month for me but I’m thrilled to be participating in a WAM! sponsored event. After Remixing Pop Culture at Cal State Northridge on Thursday March 25th, I’ll be heading straight over to Santa Monica to present a series of online videos made by women. I will celebrate women’s use of video to take action and comment on issues that are most important to them by screening online videos in the form of remix, video blogging and documentary. The videos discuss a range of topics from pop cultural criticism to anti war messages.  I will be joined by a Kamala Lopez and a screening of her film “A Single Woman” and Carla Ohrendorff will speak about feminist activism and media.

The events will take place Thursday, March 25, 2010 at Santa Monica College, Bundy Campus (Bundy 123) @ 3171 South Bundy Drive, LA CA 90066
