The Good Man

Yes, They do exist, ladies. I know that the general census is that we are all slick, thugs, uneducated, uncultured, unfaithful, disrespectful, etc.

However, there are a great many of us who go to work everyday, are highly educated, strong in mind, body, and spirit, God fearing , and love our

Women honestly and madly.

What you don’t hear about are the brothers (Men) who stand by their families and lead them to mental and physical prosperity. The Brothers who love their children and are heavily involved with their lives, school, activities. Brothers who raise and protect their sons and daughters. Yes, there are those among us who walk away from the responsibilities but they do not represent the majority. The Good man remains a daddy even after he is no longer a husband.

The Good Man is positive and protective. He cares for his woman and his community. His first loyalty after God, is his woman. Through her, he gathers his strength and his sensitivity, his drive and determination. A good man that is loved, loves back.

A Good Man is not always the brother in the nice suit or expensive car. Good Men come in all walks of life. The Mail Man, The UPS Guy, The Garbage Man, Civil Servants, all hard workers with good intentions and big hearts. Show them love, Ladies. You might be surprised with what you get back.

Lastly, The Good Man is consistent. He is always concerned with your well being, your day, your health, your thoughts, your world and always hoping that he is apart of them.

Learn to learn, learn to love, learn to live, learn to respect.

The protection of our children.

The First and foremost way of protecting our children and ensuring their safety is to properly educate them. Education, in any of it's positive forms can erase ignorance. The ignorance that effects us from a health perspective, HIV and AIDS, and the percentages in regard to our women and children.
Proper Education can still prepare our children to cope and understand economics. Having this knowledge can combat the welfare mentality and poverty. Educate our children regarding history and culture. Let them know there is more to us than Rap and basketball, That we are an enduring people with a rich history and great linage. Although Dr. King is a wonderful figure in our history, which is American History, there are others like W.E.B. Dubois and James Baldwin, Russell Simmons, and Oprah Winfrey.

Lastly and realistically, we must teach our children about Racism. It is alive and well in our country and in our world. It is a global mentality. We must recognize it but not let it control us, our work, our interactions and our life. We combat it through intelligence, common sense, understanding and education.
