Bias Busters
Get the Word Out on Sexist Media & Advertising

NOW-NYC's Bias Busters campaign

..............................................................

From sexist media coverage of the presidential campaign to advertising that sexualizes little girls, sexism in the media is rampant.  Help us put a stop to the most egregious violations by calling it when you see it. 

We've done it before:  NOW-NYC got a Calvin Klein display of nude child mannequins pulled from its window in less than 24 hours, and we worked with other women's rights groups to pressure Dolce & Gabbana to end an ad campaign that glamourized rape. 

Our voices have power.  Help us get the word out about sexist media and advertising. Contact us: 212-627-9895 OR contact@nownyc.org

Photoshop THIS!

..........................................................................................

We’re asking you to photoshop THIS! Tired of seeing unnaturally thin models and oddly sized body parts? NOW-NYC is giving you the opportunity to take your "favorite" bothersome ad and change it! The art of Photoshop isn't going anywhere, so let's turn it around and use it to our benefit. We’ll post ads and campaigns to our Bias Busters page and on our facebook page and then YOU, our members, friends and supporters, can use your own skills to edit the material to reflect more realistic, non-sexist, non-racist, non-homophobic, and generally non-offensive imagery. The new ads will reflect positive and celebratory attitudes towards women, to counter the largely dehumanizing ads we consume on a regular basis.

Send your work and ideas to contact@nownyc.org

Note: This project in no way disregards or invalidates the uniqueness and beauty of our naturally slender sisters. In an America where girls develop eating disorders due in part to images of bodies that don’t exist, it is our duty to try and set the record straight.
