As we approach the launch of the most exciting event for Black men to take place in Houston on August 4 at 7:30 PM, I want to set the foundation for why our book club is so important. Many of you saw Black in America last week on CNN, while compelling and informative, the discussions centered around the symptoms and frankly some misinformation. The “No Ego” book club is about the how. And to achieve a better understanding, of how, I discovered current and relevant data that debunks many of the myths shared on the CNN program.
The book club has just under 20 brothers who will be attending this seminal event. I am excited because armed with a new way of thinking through our first book, A New Earth, by Eckhart Tolle, and debunking many of those tired myths (e.g. more brothers in jail than in college, which is actually incorrect), we are poised to change the misconceptions, and to be in the Present and take our lives to an entirely new level. Have a great week!
