Video Description:
What does it mean to be a man in today's world? In this poignant and inspiring talk, Dr. Jocelyn Lehrer shows how harmful social ideas about masculinity contribute to diverse health and justice challenges for people of all genders. She shares her 12-year journey of building the Men's Story Project, where men publicly share raw, personal stories that challenge norms and take a stand for healthy masculinity and gender equality. Jocelyn shares powerful moments from the Project, showing the impacts men can have when they share their stories that were just beneath the surface. She encourages all people to share their bold stories – to empower themselves, help others, and change the world.
