K-Rad is the stage name of a friend of mine who writes, records and performs original hip-hop music. While they are one of my friends, the rapper K-Rad has always interested me. K-Rad, in my opinion, is a piece of who my friend is. K-Rad obviously comes from something deeper down, something completely honest and straight forward. They are just a fraction of who my friend is, but that does not make them any less than my real friend. I decided I should interview my friend about K-Rad to learn more…

Against masculinity When I was a small, school-age child, perhaps 7 or 8, I brought a new book to class for morning reading. It happened to be “Baby Island,” a 1937 novel that Wikipedia describes as “Robinson Crusoe… but with four babies.” My intention, on that brisk fall morning, was to pull the paperback out of my backpack and open it to my bookmark. “What is that?
