No More Open Secrets #2

This is an introductory information session for men in the music industry, about showing up as an ally with women and gender-diverse people.

For decades, harm in the music industry towards women has been an open secret. Many people saw it, some knew about it, and few knew what to do. We want to bring the conversation out into the open, and to help create a space where men can learn from others instead of working it out alone.

This one-hour session is practical, judgement-free and designed for men working in the music industry. You’ll hear from Dr Ash King from Support Act, Bree Baker, a trauma-informed mental health coach, and Narayan Wallace-Prabhu from LUSTRE and Hey Mate. You’ll leave with:

Improved confidence in what to say and do when something doesn’t feel right
A way to work with that uncomfortable feeling when these conversations get tough, and how to stay present in them
Supportive frameworks for thinking about shame, grief and the past, in a way that lets you move through it, not get stuck

We want to help build a connected music community that works together, instead of allowing open secrets and silence. Harm in our industry is not the result of a few individuals. It’s shaped by a culture we have all operated within, which means we can all help change it. You don’t need to be an expert or have all the answers. Come ready to explore what’s within your power to do, and take something practical back to your work.
