“What is Spectacular Sex?”- Another critique of Kiely’s video, including a collection of video responses. Thanks to Bianca Laureano for including the video from the Freedom Reeves vlog series. http://www.amplifyyourvoice.org/u/Media_Justice/2010/4/15/What-is-Spectacular-Sex

The purpose of the video is two-fold:

1) To encourage a dialogue about female sexuality that is productive and honors the complexity of the topic.

2) To invite a real dialogue with Keily Williams, Tse Williams (her manager) and Nine Lives Entertainment about why we took issue with the way that the subject matter was presented in the song and video. Contact Nine Lives Entertainment here: ninelivesent@gmail.com
