Racism: We White People are the Dangerous OnesJane Gilgun
It's way past time that white people see that we are dangerous to Afican Americans and other people of color. In this powerpoint, I share the idea that white people are the dangerous ones and I provide ways to change racist beliefs and practices that make us dangerous. We define who they are and we act on our definitions. If we define them as inferior, we act as if they are and don't believe they deserve the rights and privileges we have. If we view them as dangerous, we are afraid of them. We may avoid them, talk about them behind their backs, bully then, beat them, or kill them. We are the dangerous ones.
Presentation for the Washington State Association of Multicultural Education. Workshop examines the overlap between systemic oppression and bullying we see among students. How can we highlight these similarities to do anti-bullying work and anti-bias work with our youth?

Gender Sensitization is urgent need of Society.Gender Sensitization is changing behaviour and instilling empathy into the views that we hold about our own and the other gender.
The presentation can help the teachers and Educators to promote Gender Sensitization in young minds.
Social influence occurs when one’s emotions, opinions, or behaviors are affected by others.
Sexual behavior deals with all things relating to sex, conception and satisfaction.
Despite great efforts to train employees and enforce strong consequences for sexually harassing behavior, it still remains a great
challenge for many, especially women. Victims of sexual harassment are often afraid to speak up and fear the consequences or
impact on professional success and image. In this workshop, we break the silence by addressing this issue head on and supporting
each other in protecting our rights to respect and honor in the workplace.
Learning Objective: Increase knowledge and awareness around sexual harassment
Outcomes- At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
a. Clarify the difference between appropriate, inappropriate, and illegal behaviors associated with sexual harassment
b. Practice sending convincing messages to set appropriate boundaries
c. Practice making positive decisions based on context and relationships
d. Explore consequences of decisions and behavior
e. Examine and challenge beliefs, definitions, and assumptions around sexual harassment
If men are from Mars and women are from Venus, it may explain at least one of their shared beliefs: Men and women can't be real friends. Blame the sexual tension that almost inevitably exists between any red-blooded, heterosexual man and woman. Point to the jealousy that plagues many rational people when a significant other befriends someone of the opposite sex. Boil it down to the inherent differences between the sexes. It just can't be done. Right?
How are bullying and bias related? How does gender bias and homophobia and sexism affect the ways boys and girls experience bullying, cyberbullying, and harassment? How do young people identify bullies and victims around social factors like race, gender, ethnicity, and class? Gain practical methods and tools which can be used to educate, prevent, and combat this growing problem.

In social psychology, a stereotype is a fixed, over generalized belief about a particular group or class of people.
Term “Stereotype "was coined by “Walter Lippmann”. He defines the term in his 1922 book, Public Opinion, as “the pictures in our heads" that we have of a specific group of people.

In earlier times, family violence was largely invisible. In recent In earlier times, family violence was largely invisible. In recent
decades there has been more recognition of the problems and study
of the causes and consequences. Nevertheless, family violence
remains hidden much of the time. The fact that it is hidden reflects the
fact that vulnerable populations do not have the ability to expose the
perpetrator or access effective help from the larger society.
3
As a form of direct violence, family violence involves deliberate injury to the
4
integrity of human life. This injury can be physical and/or psychological.
•Family violence can include restrictions on the activities, and even the
thoughts, of the victims, and actual physical constraints.
•Brutality includes battering and other forms of maltreatment, torture, rape,
etc.
•Homicide involve the illegal taking of a life.
•American society and other industrialized societies are patriarchal. In fact
patriarchy has been the norm for most societies. In earlier societies, the
patriarchal head of the household had tremendous power over the other
members of the family. For example, in British Common Law and in the
American colonies there was a “rule of thumb” which stated that a man could
not beat his wife with a stick whose circumference was larger than that of his
thumb. In fact, homicide was often an option and/or a reality. The
persistence of such practices as “honor killings” and female genital
mutilation reflect the persistence of this level of patriarchy in some societies
and families.
•Power implies inequality. To the extent that power and control form a part
of the self-concept of the head of the household or the breadwinner, we see
a tendency for that power to be abused, especially when the abuser feels
inadequate or when their power is threatened.
•Unequal power relationships reflect the norms and values of a society.
Ideas about the appropriate roles to play and the behaviors associated with
these roles result in the creation and perpetuation of relative powerlessness
in certain categories of the population. In addition, the victimization of such
categories tends to be invisible because they have little or not recourse
against the abusive behavior of the dominant member(s) of the family.

This abuse of power and control and the invisibility associated with it create
several particularly vulnerable populations, categories of people. Children several particularly vulnerable populations, categories of people. Children
are, of course, the most vulnerable. Human beings remain dependent upon
their caretakers for many years after their birth. They must have their
physical needs met and learn the skills necessary to function in human
society. They rely upon their caretakers to teach them the skills necessary
to form an identity and to define and explain the world around them. Social

Wimps, Punks, & Sissies: Men's Roles in the Prevention of Family ViolenceJane Gilgun
Men have a significant role in the prevention of family violence. This presentation demonstrates their importance, moves on to the significance of gender in family violence, the meanings of violence, processes that lead to violence, and strategies for prevention. Some of the content is difficult to think about..
Y'all Means All: Discussing Gender and Sexual OrientationBonner Foundation
This presentation was developed in conjunction with the Y'all Means All training, which serves as an introduction to discussing gender and sexual orientation. This workshop is a part of the Dialogue Across Diversity and Inclusion 4x4 model, Stage 3: Application & Discussion.
We started off the session with an exercise - imagine a police officer, a doctor, a nurse, a criminal, a fire fighter, a family, a teacher, a basketball player, a boy, a girl, and more. When we compared similarities and differences, to our surprise, almost all of us had drawn the same family: a mother, father, and children who look like them. Almost all of us had imagined male police officers, fire fighters, and criminals. Almost all of us had imagined female teachers, nurses, and nannies. Several of us imagined only able-bodied people (no wheelchairs, glasses, etc.). And we did it all without having been told to imagine this way. After comparing, we pondered what would an alien species, whose only exposure to humans was in the form of these imaginings, assume about the human race. We then extended the metaphor into the fact that we were, at one point, naive to all these messages in our very beginnings - we WERE aliens to this way of thinking at one point. We then analyzed where we got these messages. Clearly, everyone knew that men can be nurses, children do not always look like their parents, crimes can be committed by people in business clothes, etc. And yet, here we were, so clear on what society has taught us who these people are. We learned about the cycle of oppression, where stereotypes can become prejudice, then discrimination, then oppression, then internalized oppression/dominance. Finally, we discussed ways we can interrupt the cycle of oppression so that we, the people around us, and future generations can get beyond societal messages of what we should believe about one another.
My brief on resilience. It is mostly pictures that I use to aid while I tell a story. You wouldn't get much from just looking at the slides. A presentation is about the speaker, not notes. But if you see me present and would like the slides, here are some of them in PDF form.
This is one version of the slides I show to police departments for training on dealing with veterans. It looks simple, relies mostly on pictures, but it is PACKED with lots of information.
The job of the combat soldier is to kill. There is no simple way of saying it. In order to do such certain traits are brought out. What is too often misunderstood as PTSD are instead the characteristics of a good soldier. This is a presentation that I gave at the 2011 Oregon Counseling Association Conference. It focuses mainly on military culture. PTSD is very real, so too is an overly rigid adherence to a soldier mentality. Yet not understanding either diminishes grasping the totality of the returned veteran and that person's needs in reintegration.
This is my latest presentation about PTSD from a warrior's perspective and an attempt to turn the traits that are important for us (courage for example) into a means to help deal with PTSD.
Note, this presentation has some disturbing images in it.
This is to teach people how to conduct a brainstorming session. At the end it has slides for using a somewhat outdated model of the experiential learning cycle (the one the military still uses).
This is a version of presenation that I give for free around the state of Oregon. My intent is to change the way the military and veterans talk about combat stress injurie and PTSD, to make it more of an open topic. Currently we hear the term and we 'tune out' and don't seek the help so many of us need. Understanding what is happening in the brain and soul, with respect to our uniform and our warrior ethos, has helped many soldiers/marines begin treatment. I am always reworking this to make the message better. I try to relate to the audience and use my credentials as infantry instructor and combat vet to that effect.
