For those dedicated to healing & justice, to unlearning harmful ways of being… Let’s explore the colonial concept of the gender binary & toxic gendering. Our guest, Khye Tyson guides us through examples of how toxic gendering perpetuates systemic violence, particularly inside the US, as well as in the birthroom. We’ll talk about the complexity - especially for those of us who identify as BIPOC - of maintaining connection with our communities & families, while simultaneously challenging the gender binary within these beloved circles. We’ll take a look at gender & power dynamics in labor, media, and daily life, and explore how to connect across difference & support folks as they navigate gender on their birthing journeys.
