Ageism in Popular, CMAP

Wednesday September 17, 2025
6:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Ageism may be the only acceptable “ism” in a world overrun with patterns of discrimination and bias. Why is it acceptable? There are many theories about this, one of the most ominous is that older folks just don’t really matter in the future of our society. There are few places where ageism is more insidious and overlooked than in popular culture — which I broadly define as film, television, social media, advertising and music. We will show examples — both on screen and in boardrooms and classrooms — of ageism, talk about why it is so prevalent, and discuss what people of all ages (not just older folks) are doing, and can do, to reduce the frequency and impact of ageism in popular culture.
