Oct 13 on FM: Men having their say on Feminist Magazine

Hosted by Ariana Manov and Melissa Chiprin

This rare edition of Feminist Magazine is NOT FOR MEN ONLY – it’s for ALL of us who want to work together for gender justice and a transformed world. We’re talking with Hugo Schwyzer and Jackson Katz who are committed to eradicating sexism – and all other social and political inequalities. And we’re calling on YOU – the men and boys in our audience and all the people who love you – to open your minds and hearts – and wallets!

Pioneering History and Gender Studies Professor Hugo Schwyzer, a “stand-up” instead of a “stand-by guy”, takes on men’s roles within feminist movements as they “Step Up, Step Back” and address “Men, Women and Anger”.  Jackson Katz, internationally recognized for his ground breaking work in gender violence prevention with men and boys, describes his seminal book The Macho Paradox: Why Some Men Hurt Women and How All Men Can Help, and his award winning educational video Tough Guise: Violence, Media, and the Crisis in Masculinity. And, we’ll feature Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men, by Dr, Michael Kimmel one of our leading researchers and writers on men and masculinity.
