We're thrilled to announce that our next book club pick for this winter is Rebels with a Cause by Niobe Way. 📚

Niobe has spent over 40 years researching boys and men, and her work has had a lasting impact on everything we do at Next Gen Men. Her 2014 book Deep Secrets even inspired the Oscar-winning film Close. 🎬

Is reading on your New Year’s resolution list? 📅 Then mark your calendars!

We’ll be kicking off our discussion on Rebels with a Cause on Thursday, February 6th at 8pm EST. 🗓️

Join NGM’s youth team, Jonathon Reed and Stephanie Wright, for an engaging conversation about how societal pressures shape the emotional lives of boys and how we can reimagine masculinity for a more inclusive, healthier future. 🌱 

In this book, Way challenges the narrow, toxic expectations often placed on boys and advocates for a model of masculinity that’s emotionally intelligent, empathetic, and allows for true vulnerability and connection. 🤝

We’ll dive into why we chose this book and what we’re excited to explore. Reading Rebels with a Cause will give you new insights into how we can break harmful stereotypes and support healthier emotional development in boys. Don’t miss the chance to engage in this important conversation! Whether you're already reading or just curious, come learn and reflect with us this winter. ❄️📖
