Boys are in trouble. The spate of school shootings in 1998 and 1999 amplified a warning being sounded by social scientists. How do boys become men? How do they learn courage, the difference between right and wrong, and the meaning of love? What hurts them, makes them violent, and sometimes kills them? Boys Will Be Men, a documentary about growing up male in America, seeks answers to these questions. Mentors will lead roundtable discussions after viewing this compelling documentary. Refreshments will be provided. Teenagers are encouraged to attend.
