In an effort to improve media coverage and public perception of African-American men and boys, millennial-led news organization Techbook Online last month launched a campaign to celebrate black male mentors and their impact on communities. The stories collected – from both millennials and boomers – were aimed at highlighting the important dimensions of black men lives, such as: fatherhood, leadership and community service.
Although the Philadelphia-based publishing firm spearheaded the initiative, it was supported by multiple stakeholders – including The Good Men Project, The Dr. Vibe Show, SEPA Cares, affiliate of the National CARES Mentoring Movement and BMe – all who agree that black men are assets.
BMe builds caring and prosperous communities led by inspired black men. BMe touts that everyday black men share, inspire and empower communities. Many of the BMe Leaders – including myself – shared stories of hope, hopelessness, failures and successes throughout the month of January, which inspired everyday black men to step up and also share their personal narratives – a total of 18 were published, aggregated and repurposed for a new digital product, The Black His-Story Book: A Collection of Narratives from Black Male Mentors.
