What to expect from The Brown Brother in 2016

Well, we got about eight to nine days left in 2015. This year, we have seen many downs and I guess a few ups that have now brought us to the end of the year. As a individual, I have grown immensely and I have seen a true shift in my ideology/philosophy.


Because of this year, I am a stronger and more wiser person than ever before. I pray that I have had some impact on your life or at least given you some enlightenment on topics otherwise not discussed anywhere else.


As this year comes to an end, I say Thank You for the consistent support and response to the work that I have put in not only the blog, but also books and other avenues. Further, I have and will continue to strive to promote as well as put out positive images of the Black Males. Also, continously preaching self-responsibility with a daily lifestyle that is surrounded by the timeless principle of respect.


Like stated above, 2015 was just the beginning. Like Kendrick Lamar said best, "We don't die, we multiply." Therefore, my biggest accomplishment this year if any, would without a doubt be that this blog has been able to be a source of knowledge and wisdom for us as Brothers.


Last, I will like to share with y'all exactly what is to come in 2016.....


1. You can expect a more improved and polished Brown Brother. Like I stated, no one is perfect, therefore I am blessed to continue to grow with you guys.


2. More material for young Black Males: This year we were able to produce the first of several books written just for young Black Males. With the addition of this book, I hope to have at least one more published and released before the end of Spring 2016.


3. A official website: This blog has been okay, a free and basic format to produce our works and creative genius. However, after the "accident" in which all my photos and visual aids were "taken away", I have seen that it is time for a change. Everyone out-grows there surrounding, and we definitely have.


4. A more active and aggressive campaign: Although, I do a lot of stuff that I just don't highlight, I think it is time to take a more open approach. Therefore, we (Brown Brothers) must make a commitment to stretch and work every avenue that we have. New ideas, new activism, and real change. Next year's (2016) slogan: MORE CAN ALWAYS BE DONE!!!!


5. YouTube: This is by far my favorite move. It is time to continue to push the positive image and ideas of strong Black Males. I know we are on one or two online formats, but to reach the masses, we must push our teaching to the highest mountain/soap box. So, you can expect to see the YouTube thing very soon!


Well, that's about it for right now. As always, if you have any helpful ideas or just have any questions, go to Twitter at @BrownBrotherWeb


Peace & New Beginnings,


The Brown Brother

RIP Mr. Dick Gregory

Mr. Dick Gregory was much more than a comedian. To simply say he was a comedian would almost water-down his greatness. The greatness in which he used a comedic style to educate those of various generations and philosophies. Mr. Dick Gregory was a man of intelligence, sophistication, and humor. Mr. Gregory was a truth seeker and one whom understood that a man must always investigate the conspiracy as well as facts written in the open to truly get a possible understanding of this cryptic world. Baba Gregory understood the importance of health and taking care of one's body. He understand the importance of a healthy spiritual life, and having a true connection with the one true universal GOD. And, the importance of being aware of our ancestors whom came before we all did. Furthermore, Mr. Gregory understood the importance of mental awareness, and the idea to continue to read and learn throughout the journey of life. Mr. Gregory activism and platform is beyond great, and very ...

FASFA

I try to explore different topics and ideas to discuss/share on the blog. While going through some papers and looking through some stuff, I remember that I forget to write about this topic. Therefore, today we are going to talk about FASFA. First, you may ask, "What is FASFA." FASFA is federal aid or money for going to college. Although they said "federal aid", it is basically tax that is set aside for students who want to go to college, but need money to help pay for college. FASFA is available to students who have need and are looking to attend college (certificate program, associate degree, or 4 year degree). You need to fill out FASFA every year. FASFA should be filled out by any and every student. It is something that will without a doubt helpful in paying for school. A simple summary is basically this: (1) Wait until you or parents file Income Tax (2) Go to this website- https://fafsa.ed.gov/ (3) Create a account (4) Fill out all of the informat...

Short Story of the Fatherless Black Male

I wrote this in the backseat of a car during a road trip. This post may have a couple of grammar errors and a couple of different ideas. But, this is how I truly felt. Let's get into it. I can't sugar-coat it or make it seem insignificant. Point blank, being a young black male without a father sucks. It worse than the stench of rotten eggs, and it feels worse than being hit by a truck at high speed. Being a fatherless male is like having half of your self taken away at birth. Being a father black male means going through life without a round-the-clock mentor, a disciplinary, a friend, a dad. I mean having a mom is a blessing within itself. Most fatherless males usually have a mom. However, if it took two to create, then it is best to take two to mold and build. And, let's be honest, it's some questions no dude feels comfortable or feels right asking their mom. That is just one of the reason why not having a father sucks. At the very least, it is a inconvenien...
