Facing History on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” Blog

February 12, 2013

Facing History and Ourselves was highlighted on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 blog ahead of the February 28 premiere of The Bully Effect. This special documentary traces the journey of filmmaker Lee Hirsch, who spent a year in schools across the United States filming students, their families, school administrators, and community members. The resulting documentary, BULLY, offers an intimate, unflinching look at how bullying has touched five kids and their families.

An educational partner for BULLY, Facing History created the official facilitator’s guide, A Guide to the Film BULLY: Fostering Empathy and Action in Schools, which helps adult and student audiences confront the film’s stories and explore the meaning for their schools and wider communities.

Tune in February 28, 2013, at 10 p.m. EST for the premiere of The Bully Effect on CNN.
