My Latest Piece at HuffPost: The Police and Their Masculinity Problem

 

In this article I examine the role masculinity plays in police brutality and in civilian deaths at the hands of police.

It is easy to confuse asserting your humanity and defending your life with asserting and defending your manhood. But it’s necessary to figure out the difference. It’s a matter of life and death.

Black lives matter. All lives matter but masculinity… not so much.
