This absorbing film is both lovingly and honestly made. It provides the rare opportunity to foster understanding and empathy, while never succumbing to the temptation to sink into hopelessness. The Best Documentary Award goes to The Cave of Adullam. tribecafilm.com/films/cave-o…

In conversation with 6 Black leaders of local Detroit nonprofits, their recognition of lacking Black #mentorship is undeniable. detroitisit.com/diversity-in… @Developing_KIDS @theyunion #blackexcellence #blm #blackculture #detroiteducation #community #detroit #detroitisit

We may have surpassed our goal, but there are still families who need our help. @UnitedWaySEM will continue to fight for our community and support our neighbors in need. #LiveUnited crainsdetroit.com/nonprofit/…

This evening I helped our @Cave313 recruits meditate and release trauma associated with #COVID19. Thank you @rcwjrf and @unitedwaysem for helping us @theyunion still reach our boys during this pandemic. Together we made this virtual training a reality!

What kid do you want the best for today? Is it your nephew or niece? Maybe a cousin or neighbor? Our educational resources give all kids an opportunity to learn, grow and be successful while learning from home. UnitedWaySEM.org/COVIDResour…

Men—just because you’re scared, it doesn’t mean you’re not strong! You are a huMAN being, and suppressing the trauma associated with what’s happening now in this world is mentally dangerous. #Covid_19 #CryLikeAMan

During these unprecedented and traumatic times, it’s imperative that we improvise! This evening was test-run for @Cave313’s virtual training. The work it took to transform my basement into an area conducive for virtual classes was well worth seeing our boys smile!

Countless people have asked when will I offer virtual training for the @Cave313—well due to the #Coronavirus, I will be launching it for my current recruits this week, then will open enrollment worldwide.

Father’s—just because you’re not in your son’s home, doesn’t mean you can’t be in his life! Please learn how to #CryLikeAMan so that you can release the toxic emotions and trauma preventing you from being the father he needs.

Wow! After almost 2 years since its release, #CryLikeAMan cracked the Top 10 again! It’s so encouraging to see my journey to freedom from emotional incarceration is still setting men free!

It’s been a year in the making and although the process was emotionally draining at times—I am thankful to be apart of something so powerful! I pray the Most High will use this to impact the world—touching those who are in need of hope, healing and restoration.

I’m always humbled when someone asks me to sign my book, but when this brother shared with me how #CryLikeAMan impacted his life, then showed me all the highlighted pages—I was deeply moved! #RYMR9
