NYC Event: Paradigm Shift presents Guyland

On Wednesday night Paradigm Shift, New York City’s feminist community, is hosting an event that promises to be really great. Dr. Michael Kimmel, the country’s leading researcher and writer on men and masculinity, will be speaking about his most recent book, Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men.
The conversation will be moderated by Shelby Knox, a reproductive justice activist who you might know from the documentary The Education of Shelby Knox.
Don’t miss what’s sure to be a fascinating conversation about men, masculinity and the role feminism has played in reshaping American culture. There will be delicious vegan food from Tastee Vegan, and some of the Feministing ladies will be there. So if you’re in NYC, come on down and say hi, meet Shelby and Michael, and it’ll be a great night!
Tickets are still available for $20 at the door and $15 for students or if you buy them in advance online.
The important stuff:
July 14th, Wednesday
7:00-10:00 pm
Theatre 80 St. Marks
80 St. Marks Place
Just west of 1st Avenue
See you all there, I hope!
