Document Summary
In this room 2pm-4pm: april 19th, 2 hours. Eradicating violence: eps has a 5x5x5 strategy. Instead of dealing with why people are violent, it simply puts a bandaid on the problem. There are reasons why certain people are involved in violence: when we look at aboriginals living at centers, their lives are saturated with violence, theres no crime gene. These questions call out your masculinity and you could be called feminine: we socialize our men to be violent. Instead of giving men an alternative ways to dealing with these situations, we just say don"t do it: guys use violence because it works. It helps us to make our way through the world. When talking about gender and race, it works through silence. It goes without saying because it comes without saying: boys and men learn that you need to have a tough guise to get respect from the world.
