In the video below, I share my reaction and response to Emmanual Acho.
I built BMEsTalk so that Black men in education have access to a “Brave Space” that was designed exclusively for them, by other Black men.
In the BMEsTalk affinity spaces, Black men are invited to be open, unedited, and authentic.
Why? We, Black men, need to be able to let down our guards, to reveal our shortcomings and struggles, in order to better understand who we are, tap into our strengths/weaknesses and SUPERCHARGE our individual and collective development.
