Bear Herbert

Bear Hebert is a writer, researcher, coach, artist and activist. They have been thinking about and working against patriarchy arguably for their whole life but certainly for the past fifteen years. Bear is a white, queer, working-class, genderqueer human with a background in activism and cultural organizing. 

Bear is teaching a course called Undoing Patriarchy because through their relationships with the men they’ve worked with, dated and been friends with, they’ve seen the ways that internalized, unconscious patriarchal conditioning holds men back from intimacy, vulnerability, and connection. Patriarchy gives men privilege, but it can strip them of their humanity as well. Bear is invested in helping men to unlearn these unconscious patterns because they believe this work is essential for the liberation of all people.
