Other students felt I had to fit the characteristics of a stereotypical \u201cBlack\u201d kid to be considered Black, characteristics such as being aggressive, athletic, sexual, and speaking a specific slang. I never fit into the crowd associated with these qualities since I&#8217;m described as a nerd, non-athletic, and care more about my academics than about social appeal. Ever since I&#8217;ve gotten to Rutgers, I&#8217;ve been engulfed in a completely different atmosphere. Here, many Black students are more fluid and confident with their masculinity even if they are different from the stereotypical image of what a Black man is supposed to look like in our society. This has made me feel more connected to and included in my community. So, I decided to make a series of TikToks documenting how Black students view masculinity in the Black community to show that it\u2019s not all cookie-cutter for every Black man.<\/p>\n<p><b>Julian Ade <\/b>writes, &#8220;I am a Haitian-American student who&#8217;s trying to get a degree in Computer Science and maybe a minor in Communications. I have engaged in multiple creative activities, growing mostly within arts, such as choir, band, and video production. Creating is the best way to express myself, and being a perfectionist about my passions, I always feel as if I cannot release something until it\u2019s exactly how I envisioned it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Check out the rest of the videos in this series below:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>Part 2: <\/b><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Masculinity Viewed From The Black Community 2\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8GmwLR0ZzBM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
