Deconstructing Patriarchy Consciousness Raising Group
Every Monday at 7pm, coed group.
Contact Maxine at peacepotters@yahoo.com or 917 705 3803 if you have questions about our group.
Maxine will send you a Zoom link, once you enroll below.
Please listen to audiozine bell hooks "Understanding Patriarchy" on Youtube prior to the meeting.
bell hooks says "patriarchy does not have a gender" and it continues to exist because both sexes continue to participate in it.
We will be reading "Feminism is for Everybody" by bell hooks.
"Feminism is for Everybody" is available for free online as a pdf.
Members in both groups are invited to discuss problems in their lives they are facing associated
with patriarchy (for example your boss makes a pass at you, and you cannot afford to report them
because you are afraid of losing your job) (your son is being bullied at school because he wore a pink shirt)etc.
We explore how we have been wounded by patriarchy, how we participate in patriarchy and
what we are doing to overthrow patriarchy.
Because we recognize some women have been so wounded by men (raped, sexually abused by their
fathers, beat by their husbands) we are hosting a women only group - so these women have a safe space to heal.
The co-ed group is because men need to hear how women have been damaged by patriarchy and women
need to hear how men have been damaged by patriarchy. Within patriarchy there are no winners.
bell hooks points out that patriarchy exists because we all participate in it. One of the purposes of
this group is to become conscious how each of us participates in a system which are hurting us & the planet.
Our meetings are every Monday at 7pm.
