Reimagining Boyhood, with Ruth Whippman

We want all boys to grow into men who have a road map to living their full humanity and contribution to society. That road map exists within Ruth Whippman's latest book BoyMom: Reimagining Boyhood in the Age of Impossible Masculinity. Blending cultural criticism, memoir, and reporting from the frontlines of contemporary American boyhood, BoyMom is a humorous and heartbreaking deep dive into the complexities of raising boys. In her talk, Whippman will share key insights from her book, addressing the impossibly contradictory pressures boys now face and providing valuable guidance for parents to help their sons lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.

This event is free and open to the public, but registration is required.
