The Family Action Network (FAN) hosts the Chicago premiere of "The Mask You Live In" and a discussion featuring
Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the film's director, producer, and writer. The
film
follows boys and young men as they struggle to stay true to themselves
while negotiating America's narrow definition of masculinity. Pressured
by the media, their peers, and even the adults in their lives, the
film's protagonists confront gender stereotypes involving race, class,
and circumstance that create the identity issues boys and young men must navigate to become "real" men.
