What do African American men have to do with gender? In this collection of riveting and wide-ranging essays, Dwight N. Hopkins draws on over thirty-five years of wrestling with these questions. Too often gender is seen as a ‚woman’s only‘ discussion. But in reality, men have a gender too. Some say it is biological; others claim it has to do with socialization. Hopkins’s career has focused on defining what a black American man is, and how he builds bridges of support and engagement with women.
Hopkins’s research as a theologian, and his experiences, substantiate that the importance of religious viewpoints, principled values, and future hope remain key to any successful creation of a new African American male and new healthy male-female interactions.
