Synopsis
A conversation one afternoon with her sixth-grade son suddenly illuminated a scary reality for Rebecca Walker: Society was priming her boy, like so many others, to become a warrior. At eleven years old, he was being asked to choose a weapon -- a virtual gun in violent computer games or a metaphoric one in team sports -- and to fight, stopping at nothing to win. Even now, years into the twenty-first century, the roles available to him appeared to be reduced to athlete or soldier, winner or loser. But is that all there is? Is competition and conquest what really makes a man?0In What Makes a Man, Walker and twenty-one other provocative writers address the question of what it means to be a man, when no one knows what it means to be a man anymore. Representing a stunning range of essayists, novelists, men and women -- including Michael Datcher, Anthony Swofford, Michael Moore, Ruth Bettelheim, and Douglas Rushkoff -- this groundbreaking anthology boldly confronts the complications, possibilities, uncertainties, and joys of being a man in the twenty-first century. Through such diverse themes that touch all our lives as sex, power, money, violence, parenting, marriage, and work, these accomplished contributors lend their unique perspectives as they share their thoughts, experiences, and stories of forging new and complex identities in a quickly evolving world. Rebecca Walker's first anthology, To Be Real, is considered one of the defining texts of contemporary feminism. Similarly revolutionary and challenging in scope, What Makes a Man articulates and defines the contours and concerns of a new generation of men. Book jacket., One of Timemagazine's 50 Future Leaders of America brings together novelists, essayists, men, and women to talk about the future of masculinity. What does it mean to be male in the twenty-first century? What does the concept of masculinity even mean in the wake of four decades of modern feminism? What makes a man a man today and a woman a woman? Are those distinctions even real anymore? In this groundbreaking collection, Michael Datcher, Michael Moore, Anthony Swofford, Ruth Bettelheim, and a whole host of the world's most influential authors address these questions and many others. Through diverse themes that touch all of our lives-including sex, grief, power, money, family, privilege, violence, marriage, and work-these accomplished contributors lend their unique perspectives as they share their thoughts, experiences, and stories on forging new men and defining masculinity in a constantly changing world. Rebecca Walker's feminist anthology, To Be Real, published nearly a decade ago, is a standard text in women's studies courses across the country. Considered one of the defining texts of contemporary feminism, To Be Realsuccessfully bridged chasms between generations and ideologies. Similarly revolutionary and challenging in scope, What Makes a Manwill be the first book to articulate and define the contours and concerns of a new generation of men.
