CLOWN

CLOWN is a brand new, thought provoking and entertaining addition to diversity awareness training for all levels of your organization! This new film follows the lives of three "Clown-Americans" and their families as they make some poignant observations about life on the other side of stereotypes. CLOWN is refreshingly unique, and combines both drama and comedy to explore the affects of bias and racism in America. While originally aired as an entertaining short film on HBO, we have created an adaptation that focuses on diversity issues and is supported by comprehensive training materials.

The Video & Training package will help employees learn how to:
· Communicate with English-as-a-second-language co-workers
· Create an organization open to religious and spiritual diversity
· Look beyond Race, a random genetic occurance
· Value a multicultural, pluralistic society
· Accommodate and work with those whose abilities differ
· Identify biases they currently hold

VIDEO SYNOPSIS
CLOWN will be the springboard from which your Diversity discussions will jump start. We see excerpts of the life of several clowns during their daily routines; a Clown doctor whose son gets repeatedly picked on in school, a Clown mechanic who is accused of unnecessarily replacing automobile parts during a service visit, and a Clown mother who agonizes over an interacial marriage between her Clown son, and her Mime daughter in law. CLOWN humorously and effectively demonstrates how anyone looking or sounding differently than everyone else can be the subject of discrimination.

The Leader's Guide has separate sections covering race, ethnicity, language, religion, and disabilities, and is designed and organized so the training facilitator has the option of running 5 separate programs, one extended workshop, or even pull training points, content, discussion questions, and exercises specific to a current need.

Item: #CLW000-VHS-ENG Length: 14 minutes (Commercial version 15 minutes)
VHS includes both versions of the program, plus an expanded Leader's Guide and
reproducible employee handouts on disc.
