This podcast episode is inspiring, encouraging, and motivational! Motivating young Black males to succeed in life and to do great things! Our Black boys do NOT have to fail silently in school… They just need people that genuinely care about them succeeding, proper education, encouragement, support, and resources. We’ve got to do our part to make sure that they succeed and that they have the necessary tools to excel in school and college. We can’t afford to let our young Black Kings give up! The amount of young Black men that drop out of school is alarming. Our young Black men are innovative, smart, intelligent, creative, and SO much more! Note: If you’re a parent, and/or guardian, teacher, school counselor, mentor, etc… I encourage you to be mindful of what you see. We’ve got to be genuinely involved if we want our children to succeed. What can we do? Ask them how they’re doing in school. Ask to see their schoolwork and homework. Check their grades… Review their report card and discuss their grades with them. Have open communication with their teachers. Make sure that they’re studying at home the way that they’re supposed to be. Talk to your children! Ask them what they like about school and what they don’t like. Are they being bullied by other students? What kind of relationships do they have with their teachers. Are they getting the help that they need at school? If your child is struggling, get them the extra help that they need. Teach them to have self-respect and self-discipline. You get my point… Be involved on EVERY level… It’s imperative! We have an obligation to mold, shape, and give them proper guidance… Are you doing your part? Are you giving them your VERY best? Are you helping them to achieve greatness, or are you hindering them, too? Young Black male youth matter, and they need to know that we care!
