WALK A MILE BC STYLE
Canada, 2011 (HD, 2:33 minutes)
Vancouver’s David Suzuki, Jim Green, Mayor Gregor Robertson, President Andrew Petter and the Vice Presidents and Deans of SFU and so many others put on RED STILLETTOS to “walk a mile in the shoes” of women, and all those who face violence because of their gender.
This is a local take on the “Red Shoes Walk a Mile in Her Shoes” campaign aimed at helping men better understand and appreciate women’s experiences, thus changing perspectives, helping improve gender relationships, and decreasing the potential for violence.
The film is presented by Simon Fraser University’s Department of Gender, Sexuality and Women’s Studies, and premiered on Thursday, December 8, 2011 at “Red Shoes, Green Belts, White Ribbons: A Breakfast to Celebrate Activism Against Gender Violence in Vancouver”.
