There are many different threats that we as a nation and as a people need to be concerned about - from terrorism to economic despair to natural disasters, we must be actively prepared for almost anything. But none of these more obvious threats are as pervasive and ultimately detrimental as the void which has developed between strong, mature men and the next generation of younger men. Within any community, and the black community in particular, it is this threat of absent fathers, complacent leaders and general passivity which will eventually lead to a world without morality and conviction. This book is a passionate charge to black men to protect their families.
