“When we forge a new path where tenderness is valued, love is essential, and our friendships are deep and meaningful, society will be forced to recognize the importance of a more inclusive and positive representation of Black masculinity.” Shaka SenghorSociety has long held a warped definition of Black masculinity, forcing Black men into a never-ending cycle of excessive toughness and limited vulnerability. These perceptions significantly impact Black men's relationships with their children, their partners, the world, and themselves.
This conversation will feature Black men showing authentic, vulnerable, and non-conforming masculine behavior that brings this complexity into focus.
The event starts with a reception in the Winter Garden from 5:30-6:00pm. Guests may also enjoy the Raphael Barontini’s exhibit during this time.
