Boyhood to Manhood: Deconstructing Black Masculinity through a Life
Span Continuum seeks to foster an open and honest discussion about
the intersection of multiple identities found among Black males.
The book explores topics such as what it means to be a Black male;
race and ethnicity; health; [dis]ability; athletics; socioeconomic
status; historical accounts; employment; religion and sexual
identity. Many Black men share the experience of being members of
cultures that are guided by strict gendered norms. These norms
often require men to conform to "masculine" behaviors, which may
increase their levels of risk-taking behavior, anxiety and fear of
being ostracized should they fail to display the appropriate "male"
skill sets. The ability to explore and embrace other possibilities
for the ways that men can construct their personal and professional
realities helps to enhance and broaden the ways in which men live
their lives and seek opportunities. The qualitative, quantitative
and historical data presented in this book provide new
understandings of the experiences, roles and perspectives of Black
men.
