"THE STATEMENT: MASCULINITY. A TIGHT ASS GRIP"


"Our January 2018 digital conversation is an invitation to join us in this probing for answers as we delve deeper. We are asking men the questions that might allow us to get to the root of the thirst for control and power that is at the heart of sexual harassment and rape.
We are eager for honesty. We want to know what it means to be “a man” in a moment when manhood is rightly under fire. We want to know WTF manhood even means, if anything, and if it needs to be reimagined or abolished altogether.
Because enough is enough. Because it’s time for acts of calling in and accountability that end in transformation. Because it’s time to reflect on the ways our collective love for “masculinity” is like a tight ass grip choking brothers’ freedom, whether they have learned to breathe with hands around their necks or not."
