Warrior Women Display August 2017 Warrior Women Display Photograph taken by Micki Reid, Cooper Library Public Information Coordinator Display Description From Cleopatra to Tina Fey, women have inspired – with powerful voices, steadfast dedication, and incredible sacrifice, women have shaped the course of history. Cooper’s August book display is a celebration of inspirational women. The display includes biographies and memoirs like The Meaning of Michelle, My Fight/Your Fight, Becoming Nicole, and The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo. It contains the stories of the Radium Girls and the Rocket Girls, as well as fiction, graphic novels, and juvenile materials like The Handmaid’s Tale, Nimona, and A Wrinkle in Time. It even includes films like The Help and Kill Bill, plus all four of the library’s Beyoncé CDs. So come to Cooper, check out the display, and find a little inspiration. - Posted on Clemson University Libraries’ Blog, August 3rd 2017 Works on Display • Adichie, Chimamanda. Americanah.

  • The Reel Truth: Women Aren’T Seen Or Heard an Automated Analysis of Gender Representation in Popular Films
    The Reel Truth: Women Aren’t Seen or Heard An Automated Analysis of Gender Representation in Popular Films If she can see it, she can be it.™ “The GD -IQ is an extraordinary tool that gives us the power to uncover unconscious gender bias with a depth that had never been possible to date. Our hope is that we can use this technology to push the boundaries of how we identify the representation imbalance in media. Media that is more representative of our society not only fosters a more inclusive industry, but by increasing the number and diversity of female leaders and role models on screen, content creators are affecting the ambitions and career aspirations of young girls and young women everywhere. If she can see it, she can be it.” - Geena Davis The Geena Davis Inclusion Quotient (GD-IQ) is a ground breaking software tool developed by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media at Mount Saint Mary’s University to analyze audio and video media content. Funded by Google.org and incorporating Google’s machine learning technology, and the University of Southern California’s audio-visual processing technologies, GD-IQ is the only software tool in existence with the ability to measure screen and speaking time through the use of automation. This revolutionary tool was co-developed by the Institute and led by Dr. Shrikanth (Shri) Narayanan and his team of researchers at the University of Southern California’s Signal Analysis and Interpretation Laboratory (SAIL), with additional analysis from Dr. Caroline Heldman. Previous studies find that female characters are vastly underrepresented in film, and this has not changed much in the last half a century.1 In this report, we use the GD-IQ to not only analyze gender representation but also analyze screen time and speaking time in the top 100 grossing films of 2014 and 2015.
