It's important to note that Gender binary stereotypes have an impact on all of us. My new friend Damon Brown is a cis-gender heterosexual male that took on the role of primary caretaker after his wife went back to work. Damon's work and his life exemplify a real shift in consciousness that I am really committed to talk more about. Our conversation weaves in and out of parenting and what it is to be a "man" in the world or to be "classically trained male" and the profound difference in the experience of black men vs. white men. Damon and I could have talked all day, I'm so happy to introduce you to him and to his work. Introducing Damon Brown.

Each week a new episode will be released with another human being that has something to say about gender. My goal is to convey that gender is a construct that was all made up and it’s way more fluid than any of us can fathom. Gender and genitals are NOT the same thing.
These weekly stories are about gender reveal. I hope that you will soak up the stories of our guests and share them with an intention to educate others and love the differences. It’s been my calling for years to love the transphobia out of our human systems. Thanks for sharing in my purpose.
