Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all. African American Father's let's accept this day of celebration and reflect on our responsibilities as fathers.

We do have a responsibility to "raise" our children whether or not we're with them on a daily basis. The context of how we're ultimately judged as fathers will be based on the success or failure of our children. This is a daunting responsibility, and one that we can handle. Let's not allow the pressures of the world, and our imperfections to impact our real job in this world, which is assisting in the development of our children to become productive citizens in this world.

We made the choice to bring our son or daughter into this world, they did not have a choice in the matter. Let's step to the plate and earn our right to have a celebration day.
