I Weigh - Dismantling Gender Violence wi...

Jameela Jamil
About this episode

Jameela welcomes the world-leading educator on gender violence, Dr Jackson Katz (Every Man, Tough Guise) back to her I Weigh podcast for a fresh discussion on why violence against women is a men’s issue, and what we all can do to make a difference. Dr Katz talks through the current state of the manosphere, what message the recent US election results highlights to young men, and where the responsibility lies to address the outdated belief system about women. This is an important and timely discussion that offers concrete actions & helpful talking points.


 

To find more from Dr Jackson Katz he's on IG @jacksontkatz and his new book out in early 2025 is Every Man: Why Violence Against Women is a Men's Issue and How You Can Make a Difference
