The Documentary Accountability Working Group (DAWG) is making quite an impact in the documentary film world, promoting a framework for values-based documentary ethics and practices. Natalie Bullock Brown is its director, and she's my guest this time around. We talk about DAWG's suggestions as to how people agreeing to appear in documentaries ought to be treated, with regard to compensation, psychological services, community outreach and more.

Byron Hurt wears a lot of hats: filmmaker, journalist, activist, mentor and more. He's also brave, if his 2022 film Hazing is any indication. Hazing takes on the subculture of humiliation and often violence that people endure when they wish to join certain organizations, including college fraternities and sororities. It's taboo to talk about hazing if you've taken part in it, but Byron, a fraternity member who's seen it from both sides, does just that. We talk about the challenges he encountered in making Hazing, including something that could have scuttled the film's release two days before it premiered on the PBS Independent Lens series. We also talk about Byron's evolving philosophy as to how he treats the participants in his films, as well as his influences as inspirations in the documentary business. Byron's other films include 2023's Lee & Liza's Family Tree, for the PBS NOVA series, as well as Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes and Soul Food Junkies.

Last of three consecutive live Thanksgiving Week 2023 episodes of the program all about TV. Our guests: Loop Media chief executive officer Jon Niermann, and Byron Hurt, filmmaker for Lee And Liza's Family Tree, a unique episode of Nova airing tonight on PBS.

In the documentary HAZING, award-winning filmmaker Byron Hurt lifts the veil on secret underground rituals that are often dehumanizing, abusive and sometimes deadly. Street Soldiers sits down with Byron Hurt and the families from his documentary to share their experiences with hazing.

Officially, hazing is illegal and unwelcome just about everywhere you turn—but it continues as an open secret in far too many fraternities, sports teams, and other institutions. The latest revelations from Northwestern University's football team are a stark reminder that we have a long way to go to uproot the culture of hazing for good. Anti-gender violence activist and documentarian Byron Hurt joins Edge of Sports for a timely discussion on the harm hazing does and how we can stop it. Dr. Neftalie Williams also joins the episode for a discussion on the uniqueness and global influence of skateboarding.Studio Production: David Hebden, Cameron GranadinoPost-Production: Taylor HebdenAudio Post-Production: David HebdenOpening Sequence: Cameron GranadinoMusic by: Eze Jackson & Carlos GuillenHelp us continue producing Edge of Sports with Dave Zirin by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer:Donate: https://therealnews.com/eos-pod-donateSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/eos-pod-subscribeLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

What's Good Revolutionaries? As we close out Mental Health Awareness Month, my dear brother and friend, Award-winning documentary filmmaker, Bryon Hurt joins me to discuss his pivotal and thought-provoking film, "Hazing". Inspired by both historical and contemporary incidents that claimed the lives of promising young people, Hurt explores the nature of hazing, its prominence among groups, teams, and organizations, and especially its influence on both masculine and toxic masculine culture. His revolution, as we say all the time here on the show, was not just for himself. This work was created to save lives, limit trauma, promote healing, and challenge organizations to think critically about how to foster camaraderie and family as people are introduced into a new group. Byron is an American treasure and should be linked with others of his same ilk. Please make sure you go and check out Hazing and his other seminal work, Beyond Beats and Rhymes. You won't be disappointed.

Despite the fact that school administrators across the U.S. say they won't tolerate hazing, they've launched outreach efforts to educate students and parents, and they've suspended Greek organizations that violate school policy, the practice of hazing and the resulting long-term injuries and deaths continue.That's the focus of award-winning filmmaker Byron Hurt's most recent documentary, called Hazing, and it's what we explore on this episode of CoastLine.

In this episode, we are joined by Sujatha Baliga, Jackson Katz, Maria LaGanga, Farah Tanis and Byron Hurt who dive into the issue of accountability and justice for survivors and communities impacted by sexual violence.With overincarceration of people of color and the poor, high recidivism rates, and low probability of prosecution in sexual assault cases, this raises questions like: Are there other ways to think about meeting the needs of survivors that don't involve the criminal legal system? Does incarceration really equal accountability? Who benefits from the criminal legal system? And, who does the system really serve?

Sexual violence is not inevitable, or a logical outcome- it is preventable. Each one of us has the power to take small, yet impactful steps to address and change our behavior in order to impact our communities and society at large. In this episode, we speak with Farah Tanis, Byron Hurt and Patti Giggans- and dive into a conversation about the roots of the movement to end sexual violence and the conditions that lead for sexual violence to happen in the first place.

"BYRON HURT: One of the best things I've ever been able to do in my life was to throw a football. I was nice with mine. Before games I would listen to hip-hop to get psyched up. LL Cool J's “Mama Said Knock You Out” usually got me ready to play. I grew up like a typical boy in America. I was a star high school and college quarterback, a ladies' man, and a cue dog who listened and partied to a whole lot of hip-hop, without really questioning the lyrics I was listening to. Rap music's lyrics and images fell right in line with my masculine identity. I was that guy. That's who I was. And then my whole life changed. When I graduated from college, I was hired by Northeastern University's Sport in Society to educate young men about men's violence against women. They figured boys and men would listen to an ex-jock like me. [Byron Hurt addressing class] When I was your age, nobody came into my high school and talked to me about men's violence against women, especially men. BYRON HURT: When I first started doing it, I didn't really know much about gender issues, anything like that. I was totally intimidated and totally unaware about what I could do as a man to change any of that stuff. But I started learning a whole lot about masculinity, and I became very introspective about my own self as a man. Every time I do a discussion or group, rap music always comes up. People say, what about hip-hop? Hip-hop is so violent. Hip-hop is so misogynistic. Hip-hop is always bashing gays and whatever. And I would always defend hip-hop. But the more I grew and the more I learned about sexism and violence and homophobia, the more those lyrics became unacceptable to me. And I began to become very conflicted about the music that I loved. One day I was sitting home at the crib watching music videos. And I was seeing video after video after video of rappers posing and posturing, throwing money at the camera, mad women around them dancing. And I was like yo, I need to do a film that breaks all of this stuff down. So I raised money, bought a video camera, hired a film crew, and began my journey to examine the representations of manhood in hip-hop culture." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAwTnJWPyFg (The actual documentary) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T3Trr4LvKI (Panel discussion of the documentary) https://www.mediaed.org/transcripts/Hip-Hop-Transcript.pdf (The word-for-word account of the documentary) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/antonio-myers4/support
