As I talk to my own adult children and experience the world through
their eyes while also watching their children grow up before me, I see
things much differently than I have before. The same as I say to Black
men about Black women I say also to Black women about Black men: "Please don't give up on Black men because the ones you met so far were a disappointment." A good man doesn't always start out as a good man, but he often becomes one after making many foolish mistakes. The insensitive axe doesn't understand the pain it causes the tree.
