Complicit : how our culture enables misbehaving men / by Bravo, Reah,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."A thoroughly researched and deeply personal examination of how we unintentionally condone sexual misconduct and other workplace abuses. When Reah Bravo was hired to work on the Charlie Rose show, the open secret of Rose's behavior toward women didn't deter her from pursuing a position she felt could launch her career in broadcast journalism. She believed that she would be more than capable of handling any unprofessional behavior that might come her way. But she soon learned that the discrepancy between the strong, independently minded woman she believed herself to be and the reality of her culturally conditioned, deferential behavior was vast. No person can accurately predict how one will respond in an abusive situation until one is in it. In a post-MeToo world, where many corporations mandate trainings to prevent misconduct, how do abusers continue to victimize their colleagues? When we live in a society where many feminist ideals are mainstream and women make up a significant percentage of the workforce, why is gender harassment more prevalent than ever? In Complicit, Bravo weaves her professional and personal experiences with insights from experts and other victims to reveal the psychological and cultural forces that make us all enablers of a sexist status quo. The result is a nuanced and comprehensive view of the ways we contribute to environments that harm the most vulnerable among us. With searing research and enlightening commentary, Bravo shines a light on what exactly makes professional misconduct and toxic work environments so pervasive and charts a path towards affecting real change"--

The time has come : why men must join the gender equality revolution / by Kaufman, Michael,1951-author.;
"From founding the White Ribbon Campaign, the largest organized effort in the world of men working to end violence against women, in the early 1990s to his appointment as the only male member of the G7 Gender Equality Advisory Council, Michael Kaufman has been a major figure in the fight for gender equality for decades. Now, in The Time Has Come, he issues a stirring call for men to get involved in the struggle for a more feminist culture. Expertly mixing his personal experiences, insights gleaned from his decades of work around the globe, and data on the state of our society, Kaufman explores topics ranging from domestic violence to parental leave. He also grapples with how toxic masculinity helps, and hurts, men, and how men can be better allies in this effort. Informative and provocative, The Time Has Come is an essential work towards building a better, more equal world."--
