#FathersDay inspiration for the Men on my TL.

In 2018, I attended the @ausarausetpa Atefu Conference.

An “Atef” is the Kemetic word for Father, & the standard for fatherhood, that all men should aspire to.

Please take a moment to listen to the remarks below #AsABlackFather. Image

The Atefu conference is committed to the development and rehabilitation of Black Manhood. #AsABlackFather it is important for us to understand what it means to be a father, and how to fulfill that role for our community.

First Marc Lamont Hill, now this. Black Male Feminists are going out “Hella” bad this week 🤦🏾‍♂️
These dudes get around these bourgeois liberal feminist/queer circles & start buck dancing for nigg* trinkets & protest pu**y then get themselves caught up.
It never fails with these “Hella Black,” “Feminist AF,” “Listen to BW,” until they say NO, ass negroes 🤷🏿‍♂️

I wrote this tweet 10 days ago, when folks were first celebrating the removal of these racist relics from the past. Now today, I’m seeing calls coming from some well meaning folks (@Mysonne) for the removal of additional relics.

I’m sharing these clips with my Brother @Mysonne because I hate to see a brother with warrior energy, being misled into believing we can reform white society.

Listen to our ancestor Robert F. Williams, brother.

Did you know that the Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey led the largest global movement in history, teaching black people to be proud of their skin, their history, and their Afrikan features?

Most of the books on this list appear to be contemporary works. I’ve pulled together, below, a must read list of classic texts to help you make sense of this moment. With this foundation, you can ignore anything written in the last 30 years, because literally nothing has changed:

1/4- @therealstylesp consider reexamining the root of your question.

Why are we looking for so-called black leaders?

What do we expect from them?

And what is it that they can do, that we can’t do as a people, with proper organization, and political education?
2/4 I’ve addressed this topic before, the people we refer to as Black leaders, held leadership positions in organizations that were created to serve the Black community:

Marcus Garvey - UNIA & ACL
Malcolm X - NOI & OAAU
Dr. King - SCLC
Robert Williams - NAACP ImageImage
3/4 The better question should be, where are our Black Organizations? We need institutions and organizations to fight for the liberation of Black people. If you desire a leader, consider starting an organization and leading it, or joining one that already exists.
