Each June the Media That Matters Film Festival chooses 12 short films to showcase. These films are all on important global issues; the issues of focus this year range from racism to youth violence to gender identity to drinking water. You can watch all 12 films online, as well as the featured films from past years, and the films are also browsable by issue (economic justice, environment, gender, human rights, immigration, etc.) In addition to the films themselves, there are tips and tools for holding screenings.This is an excellent resource for humane educators to use in engaging students and adults with these issues, as well as a useful tool for concerned citizens interested in learning more about the global challenges others are facing.
