Men and Boys Taking a Stand for Healthy Masculinities & Gender Justice

The Men’s Story Project is a bold storytelling and dialogue project that brings critical dialogue on social ideas about masculinity into public forums - via men's own stories.

In the MSP, diverse men and folks who identify in any way with masculinity publicly share personal stories that explore and challenge masculinity norms - to advance health and justice for all people. The MSP is grounded in a feminist, anti-racist, intersectional framework.

We provide training and action resources to help groups create their own original storytelling productions and media for social impact.

The Men's Story Project Is For Everyone

What They're Saying

 

You caught me off guard with how potent that was. I felt deeply moved in tears and laughter quaking through my body, but also impacted and altered enough to propel me into more action in my life… I have no doubt this will be an extremely successful project throughout the globe.”

—Female community member

 

It was SO awesome. It felt totally real, authentic, gripping, valuable and new… I can imagine it easily replicating, with equally (yet different!) great groups putting it on all over the damn place. Inspired idea, brilliantly executed. Really powerful to witness.”

—Male community member

 

I really just appreciated the realness of it all and the willingness to change. I’ll now be better able to both confront and comfort my male friends.”

—Non-binary student

 

To gather with a group of diverse men to publicly explore masculinity and vulnerably share our stories that generally don’t fit into the bandwidth of accepted male expression was nerve-wracking, exhilarating, liberating and hopeful…It was liberating to speak to a common experience that is an unspoken reality for most men.”
