THE DR. VIBE SHOW - WARREN CLARKE - BARBER SHOP TALK SERIES VOL. 2 - BLACK MASCULINITY - JULY 5 - 2018
Warren Clarke is the curator of the Barber Shop Talk Series. Recently, Mr. Clarke was on our show talking about the Barber Shop Talk Series Vol. 2: Black masculinity. During our conversation, Mr. Clarke talked about: – Some of his background and his journey of masculinity On Wednesday, July 11th, 2018 Barber Shop Talk Series: Black masculinity is hosting three social events in three separate cities (Montreal, Toronto, and Ottawa) which explores the social development of young Black men by the women who raise them. When: Wednesday, July 11th, 2018 Time: 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm Where: Toronto (location: University of Toronto – Transitional Year Program, 123 St. George St. Toronto, Ontario) Montreal: Dynasty studio’s: 330 St Jacques St. Montréal, Québec Ottawa: Cultural Arts Studio: 40 Colonnade Rd. Ottawa, Ontario These events seek to understand how young Black men socially construct their masculinities in a Canadian context. Knowing that anti-Black racism and negative stereotypes exist within our Canadian societies, which impede Black men’s upward mobility, the idea is to disrupt such social norms. Building upon a previous dialogue about Black Canadian masculinities, we are encouraging positive social outcomes for Black men and boys, but also the community members they are in relation with. The purpose of three cities is to understand the lived experiences of the development of Black masculinity from an Anglo-phone and Franco-phone perspective. Guests have the opportunity to participate in our live discussions at either of the three events (maximum of 20 people). For those who are unable to attend the event, they have the opportunity to access remotely to one of the three cities of their choice. ATTENDANCE If you plan on attending the event, please note that SPACES ARE LIMITED, and priority is given on a first come first serve basis.
