This event is FREE and open to the public.

Local writers, artists, and activists will discuss masculinity and the danger of stereotypes that narrowly define us. David Mura will lead the conversation with Art Coulson, Ezekiel Joubert, Shinaah Thao, and Michael Torres, with an opening poem by Anthony Ceballos.

Founded by Carolyn Holbrook in 2015, the program is loosely based on Nigerian novelist, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s powerful TED talk, The Danger of a Single Story where she warns against fostering stereotypes by treating one story of a people as their only story.
