Men’s Health Awareness Week Begins with Documentary

Men’s Health Awareness Week is reaching out to start the conversation about men’s health on Truman’s campus. This showing of the award-winning documentary “The Mask You Live In” from The Representation Project is the first of three men’s health centered events this month. The film follows young men as they try to navigate society’s expectations of masculinity through their own journey of growing up while addressing how this intersects with issues like race and social class. The film will be introduced with a short speech from James Cianciola, associate professor of communication, on his own experience with this topic. This showing is free and open to all.
