SUMMARY:Exploring and Dismantling Rape Culture: a workshop
DESCRIPTION:Rape culture is the term for the environment in which sexual assault\, harassment\, coercion\, and misconduct are ignored\, diminished\, and allowed to flourish without repercussion. Rape culture is rampant in the United States and around the world\, and it very often originates from the very language we use to describe and define events and actions. From casual “rape jokes” traded among friends\, to “boys will be boys\,” to journalists calling the many assault and harassment allegations against Hollywood figures a “sex scandal\,” to women being told they should appreciate street harassment—these everyday microaggressions and flat-out aggressions keep women and other victims from feelings safe\, and often also keep them from achieving their career and personal goals. \nIn this workshop we will explore the many insidious forms that rape culture takes\, and how we can arm ourselves and others with facts and with language to push back against what society keeps telling us is normal and not so bad. Learn more here. \nNOTE: This workshop is for all genders! Men very much welcome!
