A documentary that explores what it means to be a black man in America. It confronts issues of race, and racism, through the lens of gender, probing deep within the traditional American ideals of manhood in order to draw out the complex and often ambivalent nature of black male identity. Linking the insights of African-American men and women from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds with commentary from some of black America's most prominent scholars, social critics and authors, the documentary delivers an engaging, nuanced and ultimately uplifting take on the relationship between race and masculinity in America. |
