For those who might be skeptical, the Rehumanizing Men of Color program focuses on helping men overcome cultural and societal obstacles that have been placed on them due to their color. For example, some men may experience racism, sexism, homophobia, or ableism, which tend to isolate and devalue men of color. When you think about how some people might judge a man of a different race or ethnicity, it becomes more apparent why there is a need to address these problems head-on. Through this program, you will learn how to overcome these adverse reactions and develop a more positive self-image to enjoy all that life offers.
Another aspect of this program that makes it so valuable is that it looks explicitly at a race. By viewing men of color as having come from a different culture and with very different beliefs and values, men of color can understand why we are as we are today and what we can do to move forward towards positive change.
