Does society need the influence of men's aggression? Join Braver Angels to debate.

# data[].attributes.body
Join Braver Angels Thurs May 18 @ 8 pm EST for a debate on the topic – "Resolved: Society needs the influence of men's aggression."

What does it mean to be a good man? Is being a good man different than simply being a good human being? Discussions of "toxic masculinity" have left some men feeling free to break bad patterns and others feeling like they are unwelcome in the world as men. Is there a specific vision of positive masculinity or are men being asked to make themselves smaller and less distinctive?

Our resolution is intended to put the spotlight on one of the most controversial elements of masculinity—the appetite for risk, comfort with physical danger, and aggression that can lead to violence or to taking charge in a crisis. We want to hear from people with very different visions of what healthy masculinity looks like as we debate when and whether aggression can be part of being a good man.

Braver Angels Snohomish County Alliance works with Braver Angels National through its Youth-Inspired, Family-centered Approach to Depolarizing America.

As this is an affinity group for people of color, much of our programming is Afrocentric due to over 90% of the POC represented being American-born and "Black."

Our work is rooted in the necessity of unifying and amplifying the voices of all underrepresented ethnic minorities in Braver Angels. We remain hyper focused on healing the racial divide and bringing back humanism and civility to the work of depolarization.

We welcome angels of ALL ethnicities to these conversations.
There is a standard set of expectations that we ask you to review, which can be found by clicking here, https://forms.gle/eRQhXxmEMwCNYVR96 These events are open to the media upon approval. . Please fill out this form if you plan on attending our workshops or events.
