Discuss and explain what Jackson Katz meant when he said domestic violence is not just a woman’s issue. Why is this also a man’s issue (why is this everyone’s issue)? (please note the answer is not that men can also be victims of IPV – while this is certainly true – this is not the point of Jackson Katz’s TedTalk. You must watch the video in order to answer this question. See Video below). How does Patrick Stewart’s video contribute to this?

Watch the following videos:

Jackson Katz: Violence Against Women – It’s a Men’s Issue (on youtube)

Be the Hero – Patrick Stewart (Men: it is in our hands to stop violence) (youtube)
