How to Fight Rape

Nancy Schwartzman’s film “Roll Red Roll” scrutinizes rape culture in America through the lens of a 2013 assault on a high-schooler by teenage football players, and the unsavory lessons athletic coaches teach their students about sexual violence. A Guardian article describes the documentary as “chilling,” adding that it “turns the scrutiny usually reserved for the victim to the taunting text messages…the immediate first concern over the boys’ futures, the cruelty of male bonding, the jokes about and abuse of a woman’s body in an endless game to impress other men….” Roll Red Roll, in conjunction with Raliance and Prevent Connect, offers new toolkits for use with the film. rollredrollfilm.com/resources/guide
