Caribbean Men in the Arts: Demystifying Masculinities with Essays, Interviews, Poetry and Stories

This collection showcases how different forms of manhood perform in artistic spaces. The selections take an in-depth review and exploration of the emotional and artistic landscape of Caribbean men who dare to carve out a place for themselves in the visual and performance mediums. The pieces demonstrate that Caribbean men are forging more varied and wholesome ways to describe their masculinities, where they are allowed to thrive and engage in the same spaces without violence and exclusionary attitude, just as they can do in the arts. The manuscript also sets up a nucleus that will allow a progression of essential advances in the scholarly scrutiny of Black men and Black masculinities.This book will interest individuals in the arts, gender studies incorporating masculinities and femininities and black studies, and also prove to be useful for students in high schools and colleges/universities.
