Purpose Driven Douche Nozzle

May 42010

Angie the Anti-Theist ranting on Rick Warren, Saddleback, and an interpretation of Scripture that leads to Christian women staying in abusive marriages.

Anti-Condom: http://bit.ly/baVv2B

Anti-Woman: http://bit.ly/d4nXhu (By Kathryn Joyce – buy her book. If you like my videos, you’ll probably love it.)

From Joyce’s article, the statistic I mentioned in full context:

“Nancy Nason-Clark, a sociologist at the University of New Brunswick who studies religion and violence, says that while domestic violence rates are consistent in and out of church, Christian women stay much longer, and in much more violent situations, than do non-Christians. When a religious woman is victimized by her partner, shes in some ways more vulnerable—not to the abuse, but to feeling that she should stick it out, and stick to the church for help. Shes more likely to blame herself, to think that if shes better, the suffering will end.

Men’s Story Project Introduction

April 292010

The Men’s Story Project is a new public performance and community discussion project examining social ideas about masculinity, using the arts as a medium for community-building and social change. It aims to give voice to men’s stories that are less often heard; to break silences on issues including sexism, racism, heterosexism, ableism and violence and ways in which these interplay with norms around masculinity; to celebrate mens beauty and strength; and to stimulate active discussion on what being a man can be all about. The ultimate goal of this replicable project is to help expand the presence of genuine personal expression, open dialogue, peace, and social justice in communities. The project is getting started in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Josie Lehrer, creator of the project, is a public health researcher, community educator/organizer and musician. For the past 20 years, her volunteer and professional work has focused on youth development and prevention of HIV/STI and gender-based violence in the U.S. and Latin America. Josie completed a PhD program at the Harvard School of Public Health in 2004, and is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the UCSF Center for AIDS Prevention Studies. Josie also currently works as a community educator with San Francisco Women Against Rape and facilitates social support groups for youth who are living with HIV/AIDS through Bay Area Young Positives. Josie plays guitar and percussion and writes music related to social issues. Her family is from Chile.
