Читать книгу Masculinity Under Construction - LaToya Jefferson-James - Страница 4

Each of these chapters, with the exception of chapter 4, begins with a discussion of a James Baldwin quote or concept. As a graduate student, I became enamored with the nonfiction writings of James Baldwin. I learned that many of the concepts that are currently circulating in masculinity studies (and feminism) were articulated by Baldwin as early as the 1950s. According to Baldwin, American masculinity is a construction and so is Black masculinity.
