MASCULINITIES: EXPLORING UNCHARTED TERRITORIES

Interview by Carla Fernandes with Airton Monteiro

What makes masculinity masculine? Is it a way of being? A territory that one can enter and inhabit freely? How does the economic, geographical and racial identity influence this territory? What are the costs of these conditionings? 

The ghost of hegemonic masculinity, which is white, strong and rich, has been haunting the performance of  those who identify as men. How can we regain the freedom to perform masculinity in a multiplicity of ways? 

Join cultural activists Carla Fernandes and Airton Monteiro in this important conversation that will start from the peripheries of Lisbon to go on a journey in the uncharted territories of global masculinity.
