Dr Curry on Misandry and Black Men and Boys Q&A

I know Tommy J. Curry focuses specifically on black men and boys, but a lot of his work can also be extrapolated to men and boys more generally. You'll note that in many of the statistics he shows that men more broadly also share characteristics of being more susceptible to death and dying, such as in life expectancy.

I recommend the section from 29:33 for a critique of black feminism.

In popular culture intersectionality has been turned into “when you take into account intersecting identity factors”, which gives the theory far more legitimacy than it deserves. “multiple identity factors interact” has been a present idea in sociological theories far before intersectionality anyways. Study the actual theory and it becomes obvious that there are far more theoretical commitments than some value-neutral “multiple identity factors interact with each other”, and that many of these commitments are seriously flawed.

I suspect that this formulation of popular intersectionality has also been what has allowed feminism to become embedded into so many other social justice commitments such as queer issues.

Black male studies is the best development in gender studies in a long time.
