What's Happening to American Men - Part 1




Capitalism Hits Home show

Summary: American men are in serious trouble. Former standards of masculinity as aggression, power, and stoic denial of emotional vulnerability are now widely considered toxic. The economic dominance that white men had with family wages disappeared when American capitalists mechanized, computerized, and outsourced white men's jobs from the 1970s on. I hope this podcast helps us understand men's confusion and suffering and helps to transform it into new human possibilities.
