On this episode, Travis talks with educator, leader, and scholar, Keith Edwards, whose work focuses on authentic masculinity, sexual violence prevention, allyship and equity, learning beyond the classroom, and leadership and coaching. In his new book Unmasking: Toward Authentic Masculinity, he illuminates the 3 phases of men's identity development: masking, unmasking, and becoming. He also offers strategies to engage the men in our lives with more empathy and compassion, while using accountability and encouragement to help them become the men they aspire to be.
Topics discussed:
- Masking and unmasking
- How authenticity isn't always appropriate.
- What to do if we notice that we are out of integrity.
- Seeing privilege and/or oppression as about the way the world is organized rather than about the individual.
- The difference between healthy masculinity and authentic masculinity.
