Rape culture is rampant in the United States and around the world, and it very often originates from the very language we use to describe and define events and actions. From casual \u201crape jokes\u201d traded among friends, to \u201cboys will be boys,\u201d to journalists calling the many assault and harassment allegations against Hollywood figures a \u201csex scandal,\u201d to women being told they should appreciate street harassment\u2014these everyday microaggressions and flat-out aggressions keep women and other victims from feelings safe, and often also keep them from achieving their career and personal goals.<\/p>\n<p>In this workshop we will explore the many insidious forms that rape culture takes, and how we can arm ourselves and others with facts and with language to push back against what society keeps telling us is normal and not so bad. <a href=\"https:\/\/english.umaine.edu\/event\/workshop-on-rape-culture-led-by-lynn-melnick\/\">Learn more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: This workshop is for all genders!
