defense of using violence against women as focus
-
familiarity and gender power disparities may be important to how youth rehearse identity

86% of intimate partner violence were committed by males in 2009 study • Black females historically have experienced intimate partner violence at rates higher than white females.
• In 2008, Hispanic and non-Hispanic females experienced intimate partner violence at about the same rates (4.1 per 1,000 females age 12 or older versus 4.3 per 1,000, respectively).
• In 2008, 72% of the intimate partner violence against males and 49% of the intimate partner violence against females was reported to police.
• About 99% of the intimate partner violence against females in 2008 was committed by male offenders. About 83% of the intimate partner violence against males was commit- ted by female offenders in 2008.

Note on basic education: Pods and sites will have a basic intro to material so that all participants have the same foundation when they enter the program. After an introductory period participants will move into an intermediary project where they will use what they learn to help them embark on a creative inquiry problem.
- An example: A person or preferably. a team will begin a project by asking something like, how can social media speech be violent? OR ----> What role does violence play in my concept of success?
- Maybe the team is motivated by their inquiry to ask people outside their circle of influence the same question. Perhaps they develop a survey that also asks the respondents gender, age, etc.
- The team develops an infographic the response to which leads them to 'trouble' their inquiry with another component, value + context
- Another question might start off as, How does my environment affect how I move around and how is movement circumscribed by my gender identity? In what ways?
- This inquiry might lead to research about civic design and civic leaders and designers
- Once pods have been working for a while we expect to see communities forming by affinity common purpose. A data base will be set up online so teams can have access to the work of other teams and use their research to further their own. This will help the participants build networks and communities as well help solve the over all problem through social creativity. We expect that the 3rd and 4th tiers of inquiry will be complex with a number components and disciplines working together. In this sense our participants will be the architects of social change in much the same way that open source code in software development
- From Prevention as Education in the Age of Virtual Production 'Since we emphasize sexual violence prevention as a societal problem, the students do not reflect the issue on themselves as individuals. The beauty of performance and the filmmaking process is that it is not about identity construction or maintenance. It is about projection, which represents a developmental move into civic engagement. They are using aesthetics (how things look) as a tool for persuasion, making a compelling arrangement of filmed ‘events’ into a world.
Externalization is a learning tool, a developmental asset and speaks to the idea that sexual violence, as an offense, is not located in or limited to a self - a victim - it is available as something external, which can be dismantled and undone. It is a societal issue. This anticipates the move to the community, to the Social Drama.'

Creative Inquiry
- The definition of creative inquiry varies by discipline; it includes.....asking a question that has not been asked before, attempting to fill a gap in knowledge, or to create new knowledge, information, art, or expression, a process or product that requires the student to add ideas or imagination of their own, a project that is shaped by choices the student made independently, critical reflection.

Problem
- violence in communities of color (premise of myvp)
-
What we think the problem is for minority youth
-
(lack of) access to opportuinties
-
Two contradicting expectations
- society asks people of color to be authentic as a consequence of cultural competence
- the Fetish for Authentic Race
- Bracey__TheFetishForAuthenticRace.docx
- society asks minority communities not be violent
- At-risk minority youth are faced with having to enact their identities in ways that help them circumvent power structures while trying to appear to have access to power in their social presentation. This may be through presenting their identities as extremes of gender roles such as hyper-masculinity
- Shifting Constructions of Masculinity in Discourse
- kiesling_2008now_i_gotta_watch_what.pdf
- This phenomena does not neccesarilly result in violence but helps to create the specter of power. Time, dignity, value, proximity are caught up in social construction of identity.
- time
- for youth identities are reconstructed in short increments especially for those marginalized since they have fewer support systems. positive identity construction must occur now - continuously
- proximity
- supports for healthy identity construction in the social sphere appear distant. Identity construction often revolves around the immediate physical space.
- value
- Youth have fewer options to create value and to present themselves as valuable when they are beset by the stresses of constant reconstruction and the weight of carrying their identity in a confined physical space.
- These youth have very little ability or skill to 'off load' and or point to supports (networks of cultural and social affinity), sources of power and agency outside the immediate environment
- dignity
- It is then difficult for marginalized youth to cultivate and hold on to this because the stresses of everyday social life

red flags (what to avoid)
-
curricula that perpetuate systems of dominance
-
culturally responsive instead of culturally competent
- 164.67.121.27_files_downloads_Critical_Race_Theory_and_Cultural_Competence_Abramsand_Moio.pdf
-
research, language and curricula that infantalize males and their behaviors
- includes arguments that men are biologically predisposed to violence
-
Language that perpetuates the myth of male superiority by appealing to this conceit in educational material directed at male presenting/identifying . Examples:
- hero
- protector
- authentic
- why our programming is concerned with risk
