Today's YouTube clips will focus on the intersection between hip-hip, hypermasculinity, and homophobia and how these concepts influence young men.
The two-part piece produced by The Advocate is especially interesting, showcasing how--for some individuals--even to be seen as a person who sympathizes or supports gays and lesbians is a giant threat to their manhood.
This clip is from the documentary "I Am A Man: Black Masculinity in America"
Panel discussion on the documentary Hip Hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes by Byron Hurt, that disusses hypermasculinity, gender, and sexism in hip-hop
A two part news piece produced by the Advocate that discusses the prevalence of homophobia in hip-hop music and asserting one's masculinity.
