I have to start over. Again. And again. And maybe again. It's been a looooooooooooong time since I posted but I want to do this more consistently. I have to.
Black. Family. Man. Why would I want to be anything else? There is privilege and pain in this name and I embrace them all. I think. Regardless, I am a Black Family Man. Are you?
This will be my soapbox and I will implore all men to be men and to be accountable to your families and to be black. Unapologetically. There is something Divinely special about being who we are and I think it is time to assert ourselves and let the world know that we exist and have a voice!
Our President is imploring us to be responsible human beings. Is that so bad? Is that so difficult? To love the woman you are having raw sex with? To be hard-working, faith-filled males who have the courage and tenacity to do what is right -- not what is convenient -- for their children? None of us are perfect, but we can be diligent and we can adhere to a simple adage: "Be a Man." Take care of yourself, your family and your people.
Let's do it.
