In this episode of "This American Negro," I explore Black men and our loneliness. I argue that masculinity places us into a box that feels like we're in isolation and that there is no one to turn to. I believe that we are being challenged in pop culture. It is causing a healthy conversation around what we need as Black men and I am excited to lead into this conversation. We have Lil Nas X, Rothaniel, Big Teak + Lil Murda, and Isaiah Rashad all pushing this conversation. This is a limited scope, but I did want to acknowledge that they occupy a space in popular culture that remains masculine that's more particular to hip hop.
