Event Description
Lee Hirsch
The Bully Project: Putting an End to the Most Common Form of Violence Among Children
As a former victim of bullying, filmmaker Lee Hirsch felt compelled to
produce a documentary from the perspective of the victims to raise
awareness and eventually, eliminate the destructive behavior affecting
so many of our nation’s youth. He spent a year in schools across the
country, following five students and families, trying to understand how
bullying is handled within the schools. The result was his powerful and
gritty film, Bully, which debuted at the 2011 Tribeca Film
Festival. Hirsch will present an engaging lecture that will reveal how
bullying affects students, their families, the schools and society at
large.
Tickets available Monday, Sept. 17.
