Family Meeting: What Happens After #MeToo; Men in the #MeToo Era
The Brian Lehrer Show | Dec 14, 2017
Coming up on today's show:
-
As the #MeToo movement shows no signs of stopping, Jia Tolentino, staff writer at The New Yorker, and Lucinda Franks, journalist and author of Timeless: Love, Morgenthau, and Me (Sarah Crichton Books, 2015), talk about whether it's really a watershed moment, what else should happen to make sure change really comes and discuss the generational differences in how sexual misconduct is handled.
- Michael Kimmel, professor of sociology and gender studies at Stony Brook University, where he directs the Center for the Study of Men and Masculinities and is the author of Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men (Harper Perennial, 2009), Alexis Grenell, co-founder of Pythia Public, a political and public affairs firm, and a frequent contributor to the Daily News, and Kai Wright, editor and host of WNYC’s narrative unit and a columnist for The Nation magazine, discuss what men can and should do and say in the Me Too era, and how the systems that allow and facilitate harassment should be changed.
