As I travel around the country speaking, I discover that men lack representation to discuss and share their concerns. Men, by in large, are the forgotten gender and, as a result, have become ostracized and criticized for being ineffective as fathers, husbands, community activists, and mentors for our young boys. As a result, I wrote this manual to guide black men to recover who they are and who they should be. For precisely that reason, I have forged my assault by challenging men to gather and galvanize the ideals that affect men most. As a man, we can do so much more to harness our concerns and hopefully find ways to become more supportive and present. This assault comes in the form of workshops that beckon the question, “Where are the men?” I am currently formulating this staging initiative, but I need men to step up and participate.
If you need direction, and we all do, let me know if you’re interested. We need to humble ourselves by admitting we don’t have all the answers, and as a result, many of us are out of order!
I can say that all young men are welcome, covering all ages. Get your children and grandchildren on board as they enter the age of reason to share these crucial times with their fathers, grandfathers, brothers, etc.
So, join me, join us in supporting an initiative worthy of notice and application. If interested, pass the word and watch for an event through my website: # Get involved, #bybeingpresent.
