The Fate of the Post-Industrial Man with Richard Reeves

Do men need equal opportunity? Dr. Richard Reeves answers with an emphatic "yes." His work as senior fellow at the Brookings Institute and director of the Future of the Middle Class Initiative has encouraged him to author the book Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, and What to Do about It.  In this conversation, Grant and Dr. Reeves respond to the fact that men are underrepresented in higher education and struggling in the professional world, asking: What does affirmative action for men look like? How does child education harm or empower boys, and is the academic world donning a feminine identity? Should we celebrate "toxic" masculinity? Modernity calls for a new contract between men and women. What is the fate of the post-industrial man?
