NAVIGATING GENDER IN CONFLICT
With Leeland West
June 30, 5:30-7:30pm PDT | Online | Limited spaces | 2 MCLE
Many of us have been exposed to words and ideas about gender that are new to us, but the expanse of gender beyond the woman-man binary is old. How might we think about gender in ways that increase our joys, connections, and freedoms?

Leeland West's workshop will review basic concepts related to gender diversity, discuss the legacy of colonialism and the gender binary, and practice self-exploration through the lens of gender.

During his workshop, Leeland will:
  • Review basic concepts and terminology related to gender diversity.
  • Discuss how colonial histories created the woman-man gender binary.
  • Practice self-exploration and disclosure around gendered experiences.
