MiraCosta College will mark Women’s History Month in March with a free presentation of the 2012 documentary film Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide.
The film will screen at 12:15 p.m., followed by a student panel discussion. Presented by the MiraCosta Chinese Club and Associated Student Government, Half the Sky describes how women’s roles have evolved over the past few decades. Originating in 1960s China, the expression "women hold up half the sky" describes how the gender equality issue was first examined in Chinese society.
The event will be held in the Club Room (Student Center, Bldg. 3400). Info: [email protected].
