Evolutionary biologists tell us that human beings are not built to function as autonomous individual units but in functional, tight-knit groups. Yet in our atomized age, how do we even meaningfully define community and where can we find it? Most men are socialized to “go it alone” and find few if any functional communities to draw sustenance from, arguably least of all their workplaces. Frederick Marx will discuss where men can find functional, supportive communities and how to build them ourselves when needed, through the practice of council. We’ll discuss the importance of people identifying with each other and being invested in each other’s well-being. We’ll discuss why grieving must be understood as an essential community practice, and why it’s necessary to have people in our lives capable of “singing our life song back to us.” | Evolutionary biologists tell us that human beings are not built to function as autonomous individual units but in functional, tight-knit groups.

Evolutionary biologists tell us that human beings are not built to function as autonomous individual units but in functional, tight-knit groups. Yet in our atomized age, how do we even meaningfully define community and where can we find it? Most men are socialized to “go it alone” and find few if any functional communities to draw sustenance from, arguably least of all their workplaces. Frederick Marx will discuss where men can find functional, supportive communities and how to build them ourselves when needed, through the practice of council. We’ll discuss the importance of people identifying with each other and being invested in each other’s well-being. We’ll discuss why grieving must be understood as an essential community practice, and why it’s necessary to have people in our lives capable of “singing our life song back to us.”
Bio: Chicago Tribune Artist of the Year, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a recipient of a Robert F. Kennedy Special Achievement Award, Academy and Emmy nominated filmmaker and author Frederick Marx has worked 45 years in film, TV, and writing. His mission "Bearing Witness, Creating Change…" is to create transformational stories that transform lives, including: Hoop Dreams, named the “Best Documentary of All Time,” and Journey from Zanskar, featuring the Dalai Lama and Richard Gere - ranked 98% on the "TomatoMeter." His book Rites to a Good Life and his films Boys to Men?, The Unspoken, and Rites of Passage chart solutions for males to realize mature masculinity and for communities to cohere and sustain.
