Summary

From Panthers to Promise Keepers draws on intimate observations of the men and networks who were involved in what some have called the mens movement and tells us why these networks mattered. Focusing on the decades between and, it argues that while public, structural change is necessary for gender equality, getting men involved in efforts at social justice may well depend on their making changes with respect to feelings and with respect to their unconscious fears and anxieties as well.
