Testimonials

"Keith did a great job working with our professional residential life team. He provided a very different way to think about social justice ally development that left us talking and thinking for weeks. Over two months later his presentation would still come up in conversations. Keith provides a rare combination of outstanding presentation skills and an astute awareness of social justice issues."

-Grant Anderson, Coordinator of Residence Life Staff, Education, and Research, University of Minnesota - Twin Cities

"Keith Edwards is an excellent speaker on men's anti-violence issues. In addition to making a strong case for men's involvement in ending violence against women, he is very conscientious about addressing the many social justice and privilege issues that pertain to men's anti-violence work - issues that are not always addressed by speakers on this topic. He also has a very unique perspective on how men are hurt by violence against women, an important factor in motivating men to take action on this issue."

- Dr. Alan Berkowitz, Independent Consultant and Editor of “Men and Rape: Theory, Research and Prevention Programs in Higher Education”

"Keith is young and cool - he connects well with college students. He speaks to them in a way that really makes them hear what he has to say. His research is current and relevant. His examples cite popular media and are familiar references for college students. His use of interactive activities and visual aids underscore the learning that will take place for attendees. I have nothing but positive things to say about Keith Edwards. "

"I wanted to thank you for taking time to come to Hamline. I have heard nothing but positive things from our staff, you reached a very hard group to reach when it comes to diversity issues. I appreciate your commitment to this work. I also wanted to say that I have heard some good comments from both the men and women on your She Fears You presentation. I had students who heard you last year speak well of the program again and students who wanted to go see you again in the evening session."

-Javier Gutierrez, Associate Director of Residence Life, Hamline University

"I originally had to attend your presentation as a form of extra credit for a class of mine, after 5 minutes of hearing you speak I absolutely loved what you are standing for. You are one of the best public speakers I have heard in quite some time. I just wanted to say thank you for coming and say that I loved hearing you! We actually talked about your speech in class today, just thought I'd let you know!"
