Of equal importance are the ways in which black men battle against, respond to, and become implicated in the production and circulation of these images.Tucker cites examples ranging from Michael Jordan's underwear commercials and the popular Barbershop movies, to the career of rapper Tupac Shakur and John Edgar Wideman's memoir Brothers and Keepers.
