About this event
One of 17 upcoming events at About Oregon Humanities, and 4,357 across Portland, Oregon.
January 14, 2027 | 7:00 p.m. | Tomorrow Theater 3530 SE Division St., Portland OR 97202 Oregon Humanities and PAMCUT's Tomorrow Theater present a screening of Sara Robin's documentary Your Attention Please followed by a facilitated conversation. A new generation of parents, teens, and reformers are fighting back against Big Tech’s agenda to define the future of human connection. From Kristin, a mother pursuing legislative reform after losing her son, to Trisha, a young programmer building technology to stop cyberbullying, the film reveals how deeply the attention economy is shaping childhood, mental health, and human connection. Blending intimate human stories with insights from leading experts in tech reform and digital wellbeing, Your Attention Please asks some of the most urgent questions of our time: Can we reclaim our autonomy? Can technology be redesigned to serve humanity? And what does a healthier relationship with the digital world look like for us and our kids?
