Too many Black men are walking around feeling like they aren’t enough, not smart enough, not successful enough, not chosen enough. ⁠

The rejection, the gatekeeping, the social media narratives that pit us against our sisters…it weighs heavy.⁠

But you are enough.⁠
As you are.⁠
Right now.⁠

Your journey is not delayed.⁠
Your purpose is not denied.⁠
Your worth is not determined by who validates you.⁠

Black man, you are seen.⁠
You are valued.⁠
You are necessary.⁠

Keep growing. Keep healing. Keep showing up.⁠

Your story is still unfolding, and it is powerful beyond measure.⁠

Black men. Harlem. Legacy.

Two days after our historic Black dandyism photo shoot, we gathered at The Victoria in Harlem for a powerful conversation about what it truly means to lead, create, and thrive as Black men today.

What unfolded was more than just dialogue—it was a personal exchange on entrepreneurship, defining what Black men truly need, and a reminder that collaboration is the new currency.

The roundtable featured Eric Keith, Editor-in-Chief and Founder of “The Quintessential Gentleman”; Silas Cooper, star of Bravo’s “Summer House: Martha’s Vineyard”; John Powell, Lifestyle Curator; and Dr. Kells Barnett, Harlem native, fashion designer, and founder of the iconic 5001 Flavors.

An event honoring Black men who support children with autism is my kind of event.

Shoutout to Deidre Price for creating @jaycesjourneyinc in an effort to break the stigma around children with autism.

“Newborn” is a devastating, necessary masterpiece.⁠

In Nate Parker’s third feature film, David Oyelowo delivers a haunting, masterful performance as Chris Newborn, a man grappling with the agonizing trauma of solitary confinement after stepping up to take the fall for his brother.

Starring alongside a magnetic breakout performance by Olivia Washington, the film skips the romanticized prison yard tropes and dives straight into the psychological warfare of the justice system and the toll it takes on a Black family trying to heal.⁠

Distributed through their own Mansa Studios, Oyelowo and Parker aren't just looking for Hollywood accolades. ⁠

They built a 93-minute empathy machine tied to a robust advocacy campaign to end solitary confinement for good.⁠

It is an uncomfortable, humanizing film that will leave you fundamentally changed.⁠
