As active citizenship and social justice are both concepts which are explicitly taught, applauded and encouraged in schools and universities. Better Left Unsaid offers an opportunity to explore the nature of political and activist tactics and discuss at what point ideals such as equality, equity and diversity – and the means that we attain them – change from a noble pursuit to dangerous extremism.
With this in mind a resource toolkit was developed in partnership with Australian Teachers of Media Incorporated (ATOM) to help guide high school and university students around the world on their journey of exploring these nuances and tactics through engaging media.
Specifically, by watching Better Left Unsaid, students can:
- consider attitudes toward the concepts of racism, sexism and diversity;
- examine assumptions and stereotypes associated with left and right ideologies and activism;
- consider the extent to which groups and individuals who strive to overcome sexism, racism and other forms of discrimination exhibit ‘extreme’ ideologies and actions;
- evaluate the ethics associated with social activism;
- consider the importance of skepticism when engaging with the media and/or exploring current and historical events.
The resource toolkit was developed in partnership with Australian Teachers of Media Incorporated (ATOM) an independent, not-for-profit, professional association that promotes the study of media and screen literacy around the world.
