Our thanks to Alison Tieman, head honchess of the Honey Badger Brigade, for an email which takes up the remainder of this blog piece. I tried to organise an ICMI near Calgary a few years ago but we couldn’t agree the contract’s legal terms. Anyway, it’s sure to be something special – Alison was the organiser of the hugely successful ICMI19 in Chicago, but was denied access from Canada into the US – so do attend if you can!
“Join the badgers for a Badger brain trust mini-meet!
Date: September 13th
Time: 10-5PM
Location: Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Venue: Within shuttle service of the Calgary Airport
The Badgers are hosting a meetup and shindig, with talks and a roundtable on the future of the men’s issues community. Come and have your voice heard! Space is limited so if you’re interested please send us a email at:
Badger@feedthebadger.com
The Badgers fight for compassion for men and men’s issues. Unfortunately the biggest impediment to promoting compassion for men is a well funded and highly influential narrative that men are to blame for their own issues as well as the issues of women, so compassion for men is at best misdirected at worst actively aiding and abetting ‘the enemy.’
We aim to build a community where said narratives hold no power.
Not so sekret Bonus: Will have a virtual component for those supporters who are unable to attend but wish to participate!

Thanks!
