Societal expectations around gender and masculinity are constantly evolving and affecting the behavior of all individuals in our schools, workplaces, and homes. So our question is, “What’s up with young men?” In this live podcast, male-identifying students and educators come together to discuss the masks we wear: how the way we present our identity affects the climate and culture of our schools. Join our session, and realize the change necessary to create healthy environments for your community. Witness what is possible when students and teachers recognize their shared humanity.
