Accessibility information:
Sensory/cognitive: The conversation will be in oral English, there will be a screen for the online participants.
Mental: This conversation will discuss the topics picked by participants, which may include topics like racism, misogyny and violence. No graphic descriptions. This space is okay with folks expressing non-aggressive emotional responses and the facilitator will do a check-in and check-out. If one needs to take a break and do self care, this is encouraged.
The perspective is masculine centered, to analyze masculine experiences as a form of introspection and participation. The discussion will also take place from a perspective of critical self reflection and increase of understanding by privileged folks, while taking an intersectional perspective.
For further questions on accessibility, please contact Jan: Jan@masculinity.info.
Information, the link to the event and updates will be distributed through the facebook event! Please RSVP there.
