Lecture 2: Women in Prehistory:

What this means to modern men and women as we move beyond patriarchy -- a male point of view.

Presenter: Author Tim Ward (Savage Breast, Arousing the Goddess, What the Buddha Never Taught)
Length: 60-90 minutes

Were men always the leaders in society? Is the current trend towards women's rights a brand new social experiment, or a return to an older, more gender-balanced way of life? A close look at the statues, drawings of women from prehistory suggests women once wielded considerable authority. Author Tim Ward discusses the archeological finds and the ongoing controversy over the authority of women in prehistoric times. He provides a refreshingly candid male point of view on what it means for a man let go of patriarchy, and what it takes to co-create a future where men and women are genuine equals. There will be plenty of time for presumably lively discussion.
