Starter 10.1: Interpret the quote and connect it to the Cycle of Socialization.
“So while we as good men don’t perpetrate the violence, we are part of the collective socialization, the fertile ground that’s required for the violence to exist.”
Trailer: Miss Representation (This full film is on Netflix. I HIGHLY recommend watching it, for both boys and girls.)
Debrief The Mask You Live In and make connections to the Cycle.
1. Get out Harro reading. Look at the last few sections called “Enforcements,” “Results,” “Actions,” and “The Core of the Cycle” (pp. 49-51). Find a quote from each of these sections that you can relate to the film we watched on Friday or to the ideas we viewed in the trailer for Miss Representation. Share out.
2. Review together “Choosing the Directions for Change”
How might people break the cycle of toxic masculinity that negatively impacts our culture? How can we contribute to a cycle of positive socialization?
