Nah just kidding but I did do a submission that hopefully will get printed in an upcoming book that looks great called: “101 Things Every Boy of Color Needs to Know” by Lamar Shields of the Urban Leadership Institute. I’m also in the trailer for the documentary that accompanies the book that’s being done by Janks Morton of “What Black Men Think” fame. Here is the trailer, fyi I’m the first one:

@ TheDad, You think you've got jokes, but I didn't think it was beyond the realm of possibility for you and TheMom. One day, you will put a headline like that on this site, and it will be for real. Y'all are visionaries! Nevertheless, I don't despise small beginnings, and I see this as a launching pad for great things. Keep doing what you're doing!

@The Dad, Bro, you got me hyped up! When does the book and documentary drop? I would love to see the film with my younger brothers.
