Online Streaming | Donation Requested
7:00 PM: Watch this lively, frank and often funny conversation.
What happens when doing the right thing means going against your own friends?
Comic storyteller, Author, Speaker, Sexuality Educator Cindy Pierce and Author, Speaker, Mediator, Former School Administrator, Hidden Water' Board Chair, Jason Craige Harris, take on the complicated world of boys, men, and the unwritten rules of masculinity.
Drawing on recent events at Cornell University, they explore how boys learn what's expected of them, why harmful behavior so often goes unchallenged, and what it takes to be the person who says, "This isn't okay."
With Cindy's thoughtful perspective along with Jason's, the conversation asks a deceptively simple question:
What would change if more of us were willing to break ranks?
