A UTube Email
For one of my classes, Gender and Society, a Sociology class, we were discussing violence between men and women in abusive relationships. My professor showed the class a few videos from UTube that showed different scenarios of violence occurring.
One video he should us was a commercial promoting women to get help when they are in an abusive relarionship. The scenario was a boss was holding a meeting with his colleagues and as they are discussing an issue a womancollegues arrives late. As soon as soon as she enters and the boss sees her, he gets up and punches her in the faces causing her to fall down. Then the screen turns black and a voice says, you wouldn't accept it here, you shouldn't at home.
This class was about 3 weeks ago.
I was working yesterday and I received an email from one of my co-workers with "Slap your Co-Worker Day," in the subject line. I opened it and I immediately saw the same video that was shown in class. The email was supposed to be funny saying that today was national slap you co-worker day. It had different rules as to who you could slap, how many times through out the day, where they could slap and for what reason. This was supposed to be for those co-workers you would just love to slap in the face.
I erased it thinking how distasteful knowing the true purpose of that clip was to demote abusive relationships as this email was promoting it.
