Theme Workshop for Men

1989

Gordon Naylor opens the workshop by stating that discussions of equality do not place enough emphasis on how to bring about change.  The cause of prejudice is blind imitation of the past and we need to replace this with a conciousness of what needs to be corrected. The Guardian gives us four qualities needed to eliminate prejudice and bring about equality.  These are courage, persistence, kindliness and wisdom.  In the area of communication, women must learn to speak out and men need to listen.  This will lead to a full partnership. This talk is followed by an interactive workshop on the subject of gender equality.
