• Paul’s Vision of a New Masculinity
For this assignment, make sure you post your initial response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned.
To support your work, use your course and text readings and/or outsides sources and the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in Turabian format.
