Engaging Men in Ending Gender-Based Violence –
Lee Clasper-Torch
|
Changing the culture of men’s power and privilege, and engaging men in the movement to change that culture, are crucial steps in ending violence against women and girls. Lee will talk about his own work toward a gender-equitable society, including his involvement in the R.I. Coalition Against Domestic Violence’s Ten Men Project.
Lee Clasper-Torch taught world religions, philosophy, and ethics at Moses Brown School for 25 years.
