Book excerpt: Men Cry Too I cannot remember the first time I saw a man crying, but I do know I was an adult when it happened. From my experience, in the African American community, men are taught that it is unacceptable and inappropriate for them to cry openly. It is perceived as a sign of weakness. They are told to, "suck it up," and "hold the tears inside." But, is that a reasonable request? No, it is not. Men have feelings and emotions-just like women. It is discriminating, unnatural and unreasonable to request that a man suppress his emotions. Does that make them less than a man? Of course not-it makes them human. Real men will admit that they cry. It is my hope that men who are taught that crying makes them less than a man read these testimonies and realize that those who contributed to this book are definitely REAL MEN! To the men who wrote their stories for this book, I thank you, salute you and applaud you for your testimonies and your honesty.

Download or read book Cry Like a Man written by Jason Wilson and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2019-01-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a leader in teaching, training, and transforming boys in Detroit, Jason Wilson shares his own story of discovering what it means to “be a man” in this life-changing memoir. His grandfather’s lynching in the deep South, the murders of his two older brothers, and his verbally harsh and absent father all worked together to form Jason Wilson’s childhood. But it was his decision to acknowledge his emotions and yield to God’s call on his life that made Wilson the man and leader he is today. As the founder of one of the country’s most esteemed youth organizations, Wilson has decades of experience in strengthening the physical, mental, and emotional spirit of boys and men. In Cry Like a Man, Wilson explains the dangers men face in our culture’s definition of “masculinity” and gives readers hope that healing is possible. As Wilson writes, “My passion is to help boys and men find strength to become courageously transparent about their own brokenness as I shed light on the symptoms and causes of childhood trauma and ‘father wounds.’ I long to see men free themselves from emotional incarceration—to see their minds renewed, souls weaned, and relationships restored.”

Download or read book Men Cry Too written by Wayne Misner and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-08 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depressed, with his emotions holding onto a tornado, Misner wrote about love, divorce, and heartache. The poems and prose were written as he was trying to handle what life had dealt him. Written from his heart, he feels it would be valuable to share his experience with others. The poems help make sense of how people hold onto the thrills and memories of love, as they lose their loved ones. Love is possible another day. Scars will heal; hurt will dissipate, but love stays forever in the fibers of your body, the pages of your memory, and the senses of your being. Misner said, "When I started to write, I had no subject in mind. I had all these different emotions running though me at the same time; most of them bouncing off each other. I found if I wrote down what I was thinking, in time I felt better. I don't know why writing about pain and heartache helps you grow, but you can learn from pain. As I wrote, I got stronger and saw where mistakes were made. Maybe the next time there will be no mistakes." Read his writings and you may avoid riding the tornado

Download or read book Yes Little Boys Cry Too written by J F Scott and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-05-20 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most autobiographies are about famous people. The difference between these people and myself is that my lifes story is a way to explain and share how two little boys lived a life of childhood abuse and the scars this abuse left behind. I did not write this book to feel sorry for myself but to inform others that, Yes, little boys cry too!!! Not enough information is documented on how many little boys and young men have been abused, which I find quite disturbing. However, every time I read a new statistic on the number of boys that have been and will be abused, the percentages keep going up and up. You must remember that in the past, we as boys, were taught never to cry and or to show emotions. Most of us hid the abuse and many still will not reveal what happened to them. Young girls and young ladies are by far the largest group of victims. However, I refuse to be swept under a rug about a situation past and present that leaves scars on all the victims. Yes, today, I can finally come out and say that my brother and I were both victims of verbal, psychological, the severest of physical abuse and yes, sexual abuse. I somehow survived these abuses but sadly my brother did not. He ended up committing suicide at a young age. Three days before his death he telephoned me to admit he was afraid of turning out like our abuser --our mother!. He was afraid he was becoming like her and did not want that life for the wonderful woman he had married and his 10 month old daughter. If one person reads this book and sees the signs of abuse and helps just one child, then I shall die happy knowing that this one child was spared. Also, this book has a meaning other than you feeling sorry for me, as I dont need nor want pity. Neither is this book where I want to air out my famililies faults and failures. To this day, I have never told a person about my young life. I chose to wait until all the people who had made my life a living hell had passed away. What inspired me to open up was an experience that happened to me about 5 years ago, I was living with my former partner in Buenos Aires, Argentina and one day he happened to pick up a folder of old pictures. In the folder were school photographs of me from around the age of first through 6th grade. I saw that he had the pictures spread over the dining room table and had this confused look on his face. Finally he spoke and said, Jim I need to ask you a question, Why in all these pictures do you have marks on your face? He went on pointing out that in each picture I had either a busted lip, scratches and even a black eye. I suddenly went into a panic mode. Somebody saw what I had kept hidden over 25 years and something I wanted to forget. I sat there for at least 2 hours and told him everything that had happened to me from starting my life in an orphanage until I was almost 3 years old and up to the present. The torture in my life did not end the day my Mother put me out of the house at 15/16 years old. My life still had more obstacles for me to face. I was then fighting my own sexuality, I didnt understand what was happening and sadly had not one person I could trust. I needed help and back in the late 60s and 70s there were no organizations available to help. An alternative life style in those days were not accepted anywhere! I was an outcast from what the world called normal and there was no alternatives. I remember boys getting the hell knocked out of them if they were even considered just a little too effeminate. I had my share of two such bullies has a kid and I didnt need that experience again. I realize that times have changed and through this wonderful thing called the media, my heroes in life have showed the public just the tip of the iceberg. Please dont fall in the trap of believing that since times have changed; people have. Today we have people like Oprah, Ricky Martin, and Ellen Degeneres who have brought this fact to the publics attention as w
Download or read book Black Popular Music in Britain Since 1945 written by Jon Stratton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Popular Music in Britain Since 1945 provides the first broad scholarly discussion of this music since 1990. The book critically examines key moments in the history of black British popular music from 1940s jazz to 1970s soul and reggae, 1990s Jungle and the sounds of Dubstep and Grime that have echoed through the 2000s. While the book offers a history it also discusses the ways black musics in Britain have intersected with the politics of race and class, multiculturalism, gender and sexuality, and debates about media and technology. Contributors examine the impact of the local, the ways that black music in Birmingham, Bristol, Liverpool, Manchester and London evolved differently and how black popular music in Britain has always developed in complex interaction with the dominant British popular music tradition. This tradition has its own histories located in folk music, music hall and a constant engagement, since the nineteenth century, with American popular music, itself a dynamic mixing of African-American, Latin American and other musics. The ideas that run through various chapters form connecting narratives that challenge dominant understandings of black popular music in Britain and will be essential reading for those interested in Popular Music Studies, Black British Studies and Cultural Studies.
Download or read book Big Boys Cry written by Jonty Howley and published by Random House Books for Young Readers. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let boys cry! This picture book imagines a world in which boys are encouraged to express their full range of emotions. It's Levi's first day at a new school, and he's scared. His father tries to comfort Levi by telling him "Big boys don't cry." Though the father immediately understands his misstep, he can't find the words to comfort his son, and Levi leaves for school, still in need of reassurance. Fortunately, along his walk to school, Levi sees instance after instance of grown men openly expressing their sadness and fear. His learned mantra, "Big boys don't cry," slowly weakens, and by the time he's at school he releases a tear. Once he's there, things aren't so bad after all, and on his walk home he sees everyone he's encountered earlier, feeling better now that they expressed their emotions. Upon his arrival home, he finds his father waiting for him on their porch, tears in his eyes. His father is able to admit that he was scared and the two embrace, closer than before. Jonty Howley's gorgeous debut paints the world we wish existed for our boys, and offers a path there! This story is the truest interpretation of the notion that we should "let boys be boys": let them express the full range of their emotions, vulnerable parts and all!

Download or read book Real Men written by Xavier Christopher Gore and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My main goal for writing Real Men was to give my own opinion on the deceptive images of men in society. Men in the media and entertainment are portray as robots with no emotions. Insensitive to the feelings of others. We are given negative images as far as our activity and contributions to families. The Mommas Baby, Poppas Maybe syndrome is alive and well. I personally know many single parent men. Men (such as myself) who cook better than women. Men who maintain their house holds by themselves. Men who have put their sons and daughters through college and have worked multiple jobs to accomplish these goals. There is evidently a problem with crime in my community and all communities now. There is an excessive amount of men (especially Black Men) in the justice system that are there simply due to color and lack of equal representation and money for adequate lawyers to fight their cases. I feel like through my writing I can approach problems head on and direct. I want to do this in a no holds manner. This is just my own personal view point and opinion. Drugs, immorality, deviant sexual practices, lack of self worth, low self image and the basic lack of historical worth has led to many individuals losing respect for themselves and others. I feel we are all role models and have a duty to the youth and others to step up and lead where others wont. Real Men and its upcoming volumes is my personal contribution to Men, Women and ethnicities who have not had a voice for so long. I feel like this could also give others insight on what I go through and possibly educate those who let ignorance be their guide. Music, sports, and acting have been said to be our only ways out of poverty and prison. I feel like education and discipline are the keys. Knowledge of God and Self are essential now more than ever... Thank You
