Unpack the myths about silence and voice with Steven Roberts, Professor of Education & Social Justice at Monash University.
Who has the power to speak and be heard? Who listens and why? TLM teaches women and girls that silence is loveable and feminine, boys learn their voices are important and powerful. How is this myth built into the structures (eg schools) that teach us to be adults and how does this impact the adult world?
