Masculinity and Race: The Dual Dilemma of Black Men
Staples, Robert
Journal of Social Issues, 34, 1, 169-83, W 78
Black men face certain problems related to institutional racism and environments which often do not prepare them well for the fulfillment of masculine roles. In addition to problems created by discrimination, they encounter negative stereotyping, which holds that they are socially castrated, insecure in their male identity, and lacking in positive self concept.
