OCG:: "The Deadly Silence: Black Men and Boys" with Dr. Tommy J. Curry
"A Deadly Silence: Black Men and Boys"\n\nGuest Dr. Tommy J. Curry\n\nTexas A&M University,\xa0Professor of Philosophy,\xa0\n\nBlack Studies and Critical Race Theory; author, \u201cThe Man Not\u201d\n\nMost Black men and boys have not been trained to talk about gender in ways that articulate men\u2019s historical experiences with accuracy\u2013outside of investments in traditional patriarchal tropes, and consequently they are often not able to participate in discussions on Black gender matters. But what of their population in prison, school failure and the unemployment stats?\xa0Are we leaving them behind and have we diminished or snuffed out the voice of Black men and boys? Who speaks for our Fathers, Sons, Brothers, Uncles and Nephews?\n\nWe are so pleased to have Dr. Curry join us again.\n\nBROADCASTING \xa0BRAVE BOLD & BLACK\n\nemail: OCGinfo@ourcommonground.com\xa0\n\nCommunity Forum:\nhttp://www.ourcommonground-talk.ning.com/\n\n\nTwitter: @JaniceOCG #TalkthatMatters\n\n\nOCG Blog:\xa0http://www.ourcommongroundtalk.wordpress.com/\n\n\nPinterest :\xa0http://www.pinterest.com/ocgmedia/boards/\n\n\nVisit our Tumblr Page:\xa0http://ourcommonground.tumblr.com/\n\n\nFacebook:\xa0https://www.facebook.com/OCGTALKRADIO
