Binah: Modern Manhood With Michael Ian Black And Cleo Stiller

Actor, comedian and writer Michael Ian Black and journalist Cleo Stiller talk about rethinking masculinity and teaching young men to give and receive love. Michael Ian Black’s new book, A Better Man: A (Mostly Serious) Letter to My Son, is a poignant look at boyhood, in the form of a heartfelt letter from Black to his teenage son before he leaves for college.

Cleo Stiller’s book, Modern Manhood: Conversations About the Complicated World of Being a Good Man Today, presents a few self-evident truths: Predatory men need to go, sexual assault is wrong, and women and men should be equal.

Black and Stiller are joined in conversation by Mara Davis.

David Kwan is the editor and producer of Binah, featuring remarkable artists and thinkers who’ve come to speak at the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco as part of their Arts & Ideas program.
