Text of Note

You must act as if it is impossible to fail: challenges in raising African American teenage sons -- If we stand tall it is because we stand on the backs of those who came before us: African American families and the manchild -- No one can uproot the tree which God has planted: spirituality and religion in raising our sons -- The bell rings loudest in your own home: positive parenting, love, communication, and discipline -- Education is your passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today -- When I discover who I am I'll be free: Black kids in white schools and communities -- Our future lies chiefly in our own hands: the journey to manhood and peer pressure -- We cannot silence the voices that we do not like hearing: rap, media influences, and hoop dreams -- Children make foolish choices when they have nothing to lose: sex and sexuality -- A man who stands for nothing will fall for anything: drug and alcohol abuse -- Force against force equals more force: violence and gangs -- If you are on a road to nowhere, find another road: taking our sons back from the streets -- The one who asks questions doesn't lose his way: getting past the fear of counseling -- Keep your eyes on the prize. Hold on: a parent's survival guide.
