Rebecca
Walker (Interview
featured on A Man's World, August
2, 2005)
In this
poignant and gripping discussion, and laser-accurate expose of
what makes a man a man in today’s culture, Rebecca Walker,
daughter of famed authoress, Alice Walker, is among the first women
to grasp and articulate the primary origin of today’s greatest
peril to men’s health & well-being. Prompted by her shock
at the societal messages & cultural imperatives of macho, tough,
emotionally-anesthetized values her own sensitive, artistic son
was facing, this leading feminist advocate & thinker speaks
reverentially and convincingly of what is happening to men today
and what both men and women must realize and do to alter malehood’s
destructive path.
Topics
explored include:
What
is women’s “complicity” in males’ violent
nature?
Why is it so tough for a gentleman to “make it”?
How high a price does a man pay to “succeed” in our society today?
What are the most harmful (even fatal!) “cultural imperatives” today’s
man faces?
