Praise

“It is not often that you come across art that gives you the exact tools you need to do this work yourself—art that acts as a guide on the long journey to breaking these systems down. Now That We’re Men is one of those works of art.” —MARQUIS RODRIGUEZ

"Nuanced, courageous, and urgently necessary."—KIRKUS REVIEWS

"If you’ve ever been a boy or a teenager or a human being, the breathtaking artistic achievement entitled Now That We’re Men should not only be witnessed, but pondered."—JONATHAN MARC SHERMAN, playwright, Women and Wallace
