The Legacy Stops Here.

DON’T RUN.

Boys who feel. Men who stay.

We’ve taught boys to run—from their feelings, from their tenderness, from each other.

We call it strength. But it’s not. It’s silence. It’s suppression.

Maskuline is a reckoning and a reimagining.

A project to raise, teach, and become whole boys—through emotional literacy, truth-telling, and trauma-informed connection.

Book cover titled "Don't Run" with a drawing of a boy walking away and a mask on the ground. Authored by Eric Oxford, Ed.D.

How Masculinity is Shaped —

And How We Can Build Something Better

The book that started the movement.
A poetic, powerful guide for raising emotionally connected boys in a disconnected world.

Don’t Run invites us to break silence, unlearn harm, and raise boys who feel—without fear.
