#Repost @boystomentucson ・・・ There’s one sure way that our boys will grow to know this. If the men in our community take some big risks and learn to live and model this. If we want to advance this goal to the next level from there, some of those men can commit to sitting in weekly talking circles with these boys, where we set aside time just to practice and validate these behaviors with one another. When men and boys spend quality, intentional time with one another every week, reinforcing these behaviors, we begin to promote *major* healing in our communities. This is the sum of our work and our commitment at #boystomentucson. Will you join us? ❤️ Posted @withregram • @acalltomen This. Raising confident, respectful sons starts with modeling healthy behaviors.

Evan Rachel Wood joins #IAmNotOk movement, shares powerful story of domestic abuse
In just a few hours, actress Evan Rachel Wood has really helped to get a movement off the ground, reminiscent of the #MeToo phenomenon from more than a year ago.
After sharing what looked to be glamorous photos from a shoot a few years back, Wood captioned them, "The day of this photoshoot, I was so weakened by an abusive relationship. I was emaciated, severely depressed, and could barely stand. I fell into a pool of tears and was sent home for the day. #IAmNotOk."
She then shared another pic, not so glamorous, but instead downright heartbreaking.
"2 years into my abusive relationship I resorted to self harm. When my abuser would threaten or attack me, I cut my wrist as a way to disarm him. It only made the abuse stop temporarily. At that point I was desperate to stop the abuse and I was too terrified to leave. #IAmNotOk," she added, next to a photo that shows signs of self cutting.
Wood's troubling story is part of a new movement, #IAmNotOk, where victims of domestic violence share their stories in hopes of healing and knowing that "It's OK not to be OK," according to a Twitter account for the cause.
After Wood's pics gained traction, the #IAmNotOk tag has caught fire, inspiring several activists and artists to speak up, and thousands of others to share their stories of abusive relationships.
Both survivors of abuse and those trying to be an ally and stand up for what's right have taken to social media to share their concerns. Wood has also been very active in retweeting those either thanking her for her honesty or sharing their own stories.
Victims wrote gut-wrenching things like, "I'm still damaged from my emotionally abusive relationship" and "took me 25 years to finally be ok with sharing the story of my abuse. I hope that others can look up to you as I have and start to heal."
Others like Linda Perry and actor Mehcad Brooks also spoke out, supporting this movement as well as survivors of abuse.
The organization, A Call to Men, also commented with, "We support all survivors of domestic violence and other forms of gender-based violence. We hear you. We believe you. And we are working to create a world where all men and boys are loving and respectful and all women and girls are valued and safe. #IAmNotOk #HealthyManhood."
This isn't the first time Wood has opened up about her past, including bouts with mental illness, in order to help others possibly going through similar situations.
"Because we can't see depression, it's easier to write off. It's easier for people to put a negative stereotype on you," she wrote in a column for Nylon magazine.
"When I was 22, I willingly checked myself into a psychiatric hospital, and I have absolutely no shame about it," she added. "Looking back, it was the worst, best thing that ever happened to me."

Despite all the progress we’ve made, most men still feel limited by the teachings of the Man Box. Our culture dictates that men must be powerful and dominating, fearless and in control, strong and emotionless, and successful - and that women are objects, property and less than. The messages are everywhere.
But millions of us are committed to breaking out of the Man Box. We know that we can embrace a healthy, respectful manhood to prevent violence against women, sexual assault, sexual harassment, bullying and many other social ills — and to advance gender equity worldwide.

ATTENTION PARENTS & GUARDIANS: Put this on your calendar NOW: April 28th at 6PM! Join me at this virtual event to learn more about @amend_together club opportunities for young men. Seems like everyday we’re losing boys to gun violence, police brutality, domestic violence, teen dating abuse, etc. Our boys need a strategy, a blue print for heathy manhood. One that leads to heathy relationships, accomplished dreams, and making positive contributions to society. @amend_together clubs are giving young men the tools to make that a reality. We’ve lost too many, it’s time we teach them how to win! Don’t miss this opportunity!!! #AMENDTogether #HealthyMasculinity #HealthyManhood #HealthyRelationships #Blueprint #Mentorship #Community #Education #YouthDevelopment #WeCare #DontMissIt https://www.instagram.com/p/CNz3Fa7ldtL/?igshid=qcn9xjjz6qu4

Thank @deplazas Plazas and @tennesseannews for including @ywcanashville in this much needed conversation about healthy manhood, diversity, and reconciliation. As David Williams once said, “We can’t always do what we want to do, but we can always do what we can do.” Today, the one thing we can all do is VOTE. This is not the time to sit on the sidelines. Join me in the game, vote your voice, then let’s discuss the path forward. #VOTE #Diversity #Reconciliation #HealthyManhood https://www.instagram.com/p/CHI4DZhFe-laYccMbQFCNaYvA5NxRwB5SWuYCg0/?igshid=1otnrbr2mwdwp

Halifax, Canada: I’d like to thank @alicehousing Heather and Tina for being amazing host. As you can see, they kept me busy. I was told that @cbcnews is the equivalent of @cnn. I was honored to speak about @AMENDTogether on both their radio and tv news. I presented to more than 100 HS students at Citadel HS also. One student said “my dad and I heard you on the radio this morning. My dad said ‘wow, that’s a powerful message, something we all need to hear.’ Then I said, I’m glad he’s coming to my school.” The principal wants to bring @AMENDTogether clubs to Citadel HS to continue working towards healthy manhood. Finally, I gave the keynote address for more than 150 Halifax business, government and community leaders, including Mayor Savage, receiving a standing ovation at the conclusion. Some were in tears. One of the servers approached me as I was leaving saying “I only caught the 2nd half of your talk, but it hit home for me when you talked about how men don’t feel the need to get involved until it happens to someone we love. I agree that we need to step up before the violence happens.” My heart is full as a head back to Nashville today knowing that we positively impacted another community. And guess what, we’re international!!! Now, headed to see this commodore doubleheader @vandywbb @vandymbb Big thank you to my wife for being so supportive! #AMENDit2Endit #OthersFocused #HealthyManhood #International #Halifax #CanadiansAreCool #V-Unit #AnchorDown #1000Threes #MemorialMagic
