This interactive online session for cisgendered men will support you in building a healthier workplace culture in your construction or design firm. Through presentation and dialogue, we will come together to shed light on patriarchal and toxic habits you may not even be aware of, discussing their root causes and net effects, and consider ways to change them. You will leave the workshop inspired with ideas, tips, and tools for how you can positively impact your work culture. This workshop will be led by social justice educator, author and speaker Chris Crass.

Chris Crass is a longtime organizer, educator, and writer working to build powerful working class-based, feminist, multiracial movements for collective liberation. He is one of the leading voices in the country calling for and supporting white people to work for racial justice. Chris gives talks and leads workshops on campuses and with communities and congregations around the U.S. and world, to help support justice efforts.

His other book, Towards Collective Liberation: Anti-Racist Organizing, Feminist Praxis, and Movement Building Strategy, draws from his nearly 30 years as an organizer and educator and offers a firsthand look at the challenges and opportunities of anti-racist work in white communities, feminist work with men, and bringing women of color feminism into the heart of social justice.
