SUMMARY:Dismantling Rape Culture and Male Violence: A Survivor-led Course for Men
DESCRIPTION:TicketsSaturday 14 & Sunday 15 January\, 11:00 – 16:30 \nJoin SLEEC for this free two day\, in person course to support you with the insight\, knowledge\, ideas and tools to navigate sexism\, challenge rape culture\, nurture the best parts of being a man and actively make needed change. \nHaving curated and taught this course\, online over the last two years\, we are now launching our first in person Men’s Learning Course: Dismantling Male Violence and Rape culture: A Survivor Led Course for Men. \nThis course will be an open\, honest\, compassionate space where we collectively learn through discussion\, questioning and challenging ourselves. Led by women who are survivors (of rape\, sexual violence and domestic abuse) who have extensively worked within survivor services and campaigns to end male violence – offering you the opportunity to ask ask any uncomfortable questions or those you have felt unable to ask in a non-judgemental space. \nThe course will include different speakers\, such as Lewis Wedlock\, whose work is directly and indirectly connected with these subjects and these conversations. It’s essential that we listen\, learn and gain knowledge from those with different experiences and perspectives on what the roots causes of male violence and rape culture are. \nAlthough we will explore difficult topics and we will have challenging conversations\, we will also be learning from a place of joy\, connection and humour. \nThere aren’t enough spaces built like this\, but if we build them together then we can both understand and support each other from a place of empathy and care. \nThis is an exciting opportunity to deeply learn in a different way; where we unlearn as a community and a collective rather than with division\, fear and blame. \nIt can feel overwhelming seeing violence and abuse and not knowing what to do. When so many men are causing extreme harm and you feel powerless to stop it\, it’s hard to know how and where to begin challenging this behaviour in everyday life. This course has been lovingly built to help you face these challenges powerfully. \nWe need you to see the severity of danger we all face\, especially women and marginalised genders. We need you to see the very real violence we all experience\, by men. We need you to understand the real impact of sexism and the patriarchy. \nIf you want to address the actions of men and help create a world where women are actually safe to walk the streets – then we invite you to come to this course and join a beautiful community of men\, learning how to work towards ending male violence and sexism. \nCourse content:\n• Understanding what sexism and misogyny looks like in 2023. What is the impact on all genders?\n• How patriarchy maintains power dynamics\, gender roles and male violence. How sexism impacts men.\n• What is rape culture and how it shows up in ways you don’t always see.\n• How to actually intervene in situations of violence and aggression.\n• Unpacking the fear of rejection and vulnerability.\n• Nurturing positive masculinity.\n• Starting difficult conversations\, navigating defensiveness and helping other men unlearn rape culture.\n• Connecting to the experiences of survivors/women and know how to actually help.\n• Exploring the complexities of sexuality\, sex work\, porn and kink.\n• Prevention work\, exploring accountability and community response.\n• How to challenge male violence and rape culture on a wider scale. \nReserve your free ticket here »
