"Last year, as you might remember, Australian Army Lieutenant General David Morrison — the top ranked man in the Australian armed forces — made a video addressing sexual violence in the ranks. He famously urged men in the armed forces to stop being bystanders to sexual abuse among their colleagues, and told them that “the standard you walk past is the standard you accept.” ...This week, Morrison has made headlines again after his remarks at an annual White Ribbon Day breakfast. Morrison is a White Ribbon ambassador, and took the opportunity to talk about the role that culture — and particularly what some might call Australia’s toxic masculinity — plays in perpetuating domestic violence."
I LOVE this - the standard you walk past is the standard you accept. Yesyesyes
I also want to learn about how this guy was educated, and what inspired him to action.
