Rod 2.0: Mark Anthony Neal on Black Masculinity and Leroy of "Fame"
The example I always use is if we see a black man with a basketball, we don’t even have to process that. We’ve seen it so many times in our lives, we know exactly what that means. If we were to see a black man with a violin, that gives us reason to pause, right? We have all of these questions that are now attached, you know, how did he get the violin? Does he know how to play the violin? How can he afford the violin? I mean we can go on and on.Hip-hop becomes a very interesting space in this conversation because it [has] monetized the image of black masculinity, and made several of these figures incredibly wealthy - the Jay-Zs and the Snoop Doggs and the Will Smiths But it’s also a space that limits our understanding of the range of possibilities of what black masculinity can look like.
