Dear Black Man, You Good?
Dear Black Man, You good? Just checking because we know how it is out here!! We got bills to pay, relationships to maintain, and a hell of a lot more on our plates. And all while living in a country that doesn’t even want us here. We all could use a break, some grace, and true community. Speaking of, we’re a diverse group of Black men who get together to connect, support each other, and have candid conversations about being a Black man (in America). We talk about the good, the bad and the ugly but it’s always love. Check out an episode, because we all could use some real talk, and it’s definitely a vibe. This is our love letter to Black men. We see you. We hear you. We love you. We are you.
