Unpacking the Man Box: Cross-Gender Dialogue About Masculinity and Movement-Building
April 29, 2021 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm EDT
Free
Through personal reflection and cross-gender dialogue, we will examine the socialization of boys and men, discuss how masculinity affects all people regardless of gender, and explore the impact of gender on our work as activists. Together we will generate ideas for how to individually and collectively “unpack the man box” and dismantle patriarchy as we develop our activism.
