Last week we shared Jackson Katz’ TED Talk on Silence and Violence.
You may have even seen Jackson Katz’ TED Talk in a First Man Standing email if you are signed up. Here it is in case you missed it. It’s 15 mins long but well worth watching.
Interestingly Jackson Katz has received some strongly worded tweets after the talk and has had to respond to some of the issues raised about masculinity, men and violence. We address some of the FAQ’s and myths on this site. Do check them out & do pass on the talk, this blog to others.
Don’t forget you can sign up to be a First Man Standing and join in a global group of Christian men making a stand against violence against women.
Keep a look out for some great videos coming from us this year for you to use in your churches, home groups, etc.
If you feel that you might be in an abusive situation, help is on hand. You can contact the National Domestic Abuse Helpline on 0808 2000 247, or speak to Refuge using their online chat function. You can also get in touch with our Survivors’ Network – we’re not an emergency service or helpline, but we can stand alongside you as you access the support you need.
