Scott Rudin to Resign - https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/scott-rudin-to-resign-from-the-broadway-league-report-4172372/ After participating in a group discussion, some boys said they felt motivated to call out inappropriate behavior by other boys and that should open up about their feelings more. I am proud of the way that I was able to connect with them and I am excited for the ways that our relationships will grow and help the lives of real people and affect real change in society. Next on the reading list is The Little #MeToo Book for Men by Mr. Mark Greene, which has been called “nothing short of a blueprint for men’s liberation,” by the Caroline Heldman, executive director at The Representation Project. Additionally, I will read She Said, by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, the Pulitzer Prize-winning reporters who broke the news of Harvey Weinstein’s sexual harassment and abuse for the New York Times. I cannot wait to read the untold story of their investigation and its consequences for the #MeToo movement.

By engaging a group of men, and then sharing the content of our convo, I will be able to reach a lot of men and encourage conversation and accountability among them. Even though I didn’t find any groups where men, especially young men, were self-gathering around this specific issue, I did find groups and organizations working to support boys and men and at least starting to have these conversations. Make It Happen, for example, serves young men of color between the ages of 16 and 24 who have been negatively impacted by community violence. More on them later. Be prepared: This book is raw and surprising. There is no subject off-limits or lies detected. Sometimes things might get a little uncomfortable, but that’s an important part of getting to know—and believe in—yourself. The name of my project comes from a very well-known phrase: boys will be boys. Michael Kimmel, an American sociologist and leading researcher and writer on men and masculinity, in 2012 asked, “Why don’t we say ‘boys will be boys’ when a man wins the Nobel Peace Prize?” And he asks a fair question. The phrase “boys will be boys” is often used to excuse problematic behavior rather than to celebrate the successes of men and boys. Today I speak to three of my female friends about being catcalled and/or sexually harassed. We discuss how close these two things are, they can be separated BUT catcalling leads to more more times than not. Great day for learning and talking to friends however they identify, let's talk!I also found that the early connections and the care and consistency that I demonstrated translated into trust that I built over time that made it possible for me to have the group discussions that I had to produce the video series and other photo and written content I produced at all. In partnership with the community members — boys and men who are not usually given time and space and a voice in the media landscape — I noticed a gap that exists and so I created a service and a way to keep engaging boys and keeping them accountable to each other. Metrics & Outcomes We criminalize the poor. Distance ourselves from them by subconsciously dehumanizing them. Telling ourselves they must deserve it, the system works and it could never be us. That’s our privilege. Are they hungry? People in our own communities. Hidden, forgotten, shamed… for being poor… This is just a bigger picture of what this book preaches. Sometimes it’s children in our own communities. What do we say about them? These are real people. We could be them at any moment. I will probably be one of them when my kids are grown because I will never stop fighting this inhumane system. I wonder if Justin Baldoni knows he’s a Marxist 🥰☮️✌️ The next generation of boys may still be dealing with the generations of mistreatment of women…I guess we’re watching systemic trauma play out live with our own sons… Patriarchy really does hurt all of us. By practicing social journalism and engaging the community, there is a sense of ownership in the work and the media being put out which points to the power dynamic between young men of color and a journalist that is shifting on a fundamental level through my project. Facile pop-psychology from a clinical psychologist with the credentials to know better. Assigning a chapter each to a select range of feelings—nearly all of them painful or negative ones, such as guilt, fear or anger, with but one shorter chapter allotted to the likes of love and joy—Lamia offers generalizations about what emotional responses look and feel like, typical circumstances that might cause them to arise and superficial insights (“Negative or worried thoughts spoil a good mood”). She also offers bland palliative suggestions (“Forgive yourself and move on”), self-quizzes, sound-bite comments in the margins from young people and, in colored boxes labeled “Psych Notes,” relevant research abstracts from cited but hard-to-obtain professional sources. Aside from a mildly discouraging view of “Infatuation,” she isn’t judgmental or prescriptive, but her overview is so cursory that she skips the stages of grief, makes no distinction between disgust and contempt and barely takes notice of depression. Teens and preteens might come away slightly more self-aware, but they won’t find either motivation or tools to help them cope with major upset. (Self-help. 12-16)

Boys Will Be Human: A Get-Real Gut-Check Guide to Becoming

Wanting to serve a community that has historically been underserved by mainstream media, I went to East New York as it is largely a community of color in a low-income area and looked for community centers and other programs where boys and men met already. This book isn’t about learning the rules of the boys’ club, it’s about UNLEARNING them. It’s a get-real guidebook that will show you how to be: Have you ever noticed that there are unwritten rules that tell boys how to act, think, and feel Nobody knows where they came from, but one day—BAM!—you suddenly feel these invisible forces, pushing you to follow the rules of masculinity, even if they don’t make you happy.One metric that signals that success is the way that they are getting together and gathering even without me or any prompting from me, and also exhibited in the group discussion I am hosting this week even after graduation because members of my community have asked for it.
