America, you will never know the pain you’ve caused so many of your finest CITIZENS!!!! i’ve said it before and I’m going to keep saying it, Black people, like this brother, are the TRUE patriots of this country. Because despite all the pain that our own country causes us, we still show up every day to help make it as great as the world perceives us to be.
Normally I would have much to say about anything I post. But this speaks for itself. Black woman, when you invested in the Black man like this, you will reap majors dividends. We all need each other!!!! @missmarianna365 I am your brother. Let’s do this! 🎥 @somethingblackmade
If you’re angry at ANY of this. You are not an American that believes is equal rights for all citizens. Just the ones who look like you. You’re not a “patriot” that believes that ALL people who serve their country are patriots. Just the ones who look like YOU!!! If you aren’t upset over a man being killed in his own home with a registered firearm then you don’t believe in the constitutional rights of ALL people. Just the ones who look like YOU? And that’s the problem with America that has never been the “United” States. And that’s a problem.
This is a LENGTHY post because it was almost a LETHAL position!!!! I could have lost my career, reputation or even my LIFE—all over false claims and “isms”. Bias’ such as racism, sexism, and others like it play a huge part in daily encounters. And this story is but one of them. People are making life DANGEROUS for people like me by trying to use the police as a weapon against us. Black men, be mindful…👑👑
Happy Mother’s Day to best mom a man could have for his children . @sallirichwhit You are simply the best baby.
If I’m being completely honest, (and that’s the kind of thing that gets most people cancelled nowadays) far too many women that I encounter and the vast majority that I counsel, are not prepared to be with a man when he is strong enough to be HUMAN!!!! It takes a lot for a man to be EVOLVED enough to be more than just “angry”. Human beings should be allowed to FEEL sad, frustrated, discouraged and even depressed at times. As an evolved man that’s strong enough to be HUMAN, it doesn’t mean that we’re incapable of still being a protector and provider while we go through the full range of emotions that God made us capable of feeling. Speaking personally, I can still kick behind and be nurturing whenever the moment calls for it. Ladies, take notes. Your man is a human being. And if you’re allowed to be human, (which you often are) he should be too!!!! Shout out to @pastorkeion my sister @iamshaunie and @laterrasrwhitfield this was good for the soul. ✊🏽👑
There is an opinion that there are far too many men who are more feminine than ever. Along with many women who are more masculine than ever. I can’t speak to the woman issue because that’s for our sisters to work out in themselves. But I will speak to this notion about men being more feminine than ever before. These kinds affirmations and practices may indeed fall under the category of being a feminine practice as opposed to a masculine practice. But let me further state, and this is the most important part, that when a man goes through these kinds of things to resuscitate and restore himself-and even to build his son into a more whole man, its really speaking to the humanity of that man. And if you are a man who practices this and you encounter a woman who does not, or you encounter a woman who is more comfortable being in her masculine state of being, then they absolutely will call you a feminine man. And not realize that you are simply a man trying to be more human than anything else. Being more human doesn’t mean that I won’t still kick your behind if you hurt or harm me or my loved ones. Being more human doesn’t mean that I still can’t bench press 225 lbs. And it doesn’t mean that I won’t still be a lion in the bed room. It just means that I don’t allow those things to define who I am as a man!!!!!! And therein lies one of the biggest issues in our community. We can’t even recognize that all of us have been denied the ability to get back in touch with our humanity!!!!!
Boys need love and affirmation. Love and affirmation from mom gives them care and comfort. But love and affirmation from dad gives them courage and confidence. Let’s go dads.
@wojespn in plain English. Questions?
WARNING!!!!! This could be triggering… And THIS is why encounters with the police for BLACK MEN are so traumatic. It’s why the incident that I recently posted about with someone who called the police on me for NOTHING had me so enraged!!! Because these incidents are so mentally taxing, but men are suffering in silence DAILY!!!! Trauma, is not exclusive to one gender!!!! Men and boys are suffering as well. And often it becomes deadly!!!! And the mere notion that the deadly encounter is possible is compromising men and boys mental health. Particularly, us “good ones”. Why? Because you could be shot and killed, at a bar like this or for walking your dogs and someone weaponizes the police because they don’t like you. These instances have to STOP!!!!!
I don’t know who this woman is but she is a genius for this. So many of our women think that the only thing we care about is that “thang”. Young minded guys who have not matriculated their way toward manhood ONLY care about sneakers and sex. But MEN, dedicated to being of service to their woman and their circumference want and NEED affection attention. Hugs, kisses and touch. We don’t often talk about it but always crave it. And for all the genius’ who can only respond with, “it works both ways”, DUHHHHH. We know that. So just take this and apply it. So here’s a question for the ladies— Were you ever taught or did you ever think for yourself, that the only thing that MEN (not males) NEED is sex?
You wanted the smoke and we came with it. A powerful conversation between me and my sister @love_mcpherson about the essential ingredients to a healthier and more whole version of a relationship and marriage. Get ready for part 2!!!!
To all of my dads out there, this is for you!!!!
I’m too smart to make a statement on this subject. Because too many people will be speaking from their feelings and not from the facts. But in light of Father’s Day, I have to address this. Society keeps talking about the fact that we have far too many guys who are way too feminine. And women are saying that they’re too masculine because they are surrounded by feminine men. Could being overly mothered and under-fathered be the reason?
The HueMAN podcast, dedicated to dealing with all the things that effect men of our hue, is coming! This is where Black and Brown men can level up and where the women who are in our lives can learn what makes us who and what we are. We couldn’t be more excited to be of service with this purpose work. Get ready to join us and tell your village to join us too. #SayLessBeMore
I love when people with huge platforms aren’t afraid to say what SHOULD be said and NEEDS to be said. Thank you sister @kerrywashington for being an amplifier for the people. ✊🏽👑❤️ Repost from @violadavis
@drewhitfield_ First round at the @stanfordgolfcourse ,from the tips, shooting a round of 77, was good work. His excitement about golf makes me more excited about the game too. My favorite golf partner is off to camp at 15 years old and taking a first look at @stanfordmgolf from up close. The view is great!!!!! @stanford say hello to Dré Whitfield.
And I say this firmly but with love to a FEW (actually, far too many) of our sisters—just because these things aren’t YOUR truth doesn’t mean it isn’t THE truth!!!! I don’t know ANY…I’m going to say that again, I don’t know ANY Black dads that don’t want a relationship with their kids. And they do everything they can to be great dads. I know a couple who are mediocre dads. But I know mediocre EVERYTHING…actors, athletes, plumbers, kids, dudes, women, etc. The point is, the narrative about Black men, has to stop. Not because it doesn’t feel good. It has to stop because, by and large, it’s simply NOT TRUE!!!! 🎥 @red_pill_awareness
Now we’re going to see who we REALLY are as a country.
Hello @facebook Is anyone home?????? Can you answer the bell please. My account has been hacked!!!!! When will you address this?????
Shout out to my people at @eastsidegolf Me and my son @drewhitfield_ rock our gear to represent what looks like us! Love it.
Here we come…because purpose is calling. Men of our hue, black and brown, need information, instruction and loving but firm accountability. Men of our hue are HUMAN in a inhumane society. So the HUEMAN podcast is coming soon! Where we give testimony and tools!!! Where our brothers learn how to be better. And our sisters can learn what makes us who we are. The HUEMAN podcast…stay tuned! And follow us at @thehueman_experience
My sister @karol_priscilla captured channeling my inner Earl Woods with son @drewhitfield_ as he warmed up for a practice round during the Pumpkin Ridge stop for the @underratedgolf tour. I love guiding and watching his growth. As a golfer and as a young man. Keep up the great work son!!! Your are built for this!!!! #underratedgolftour
One of the best things about sharing the game of golf with my son @drewhitfield_ is that now we get to share it with others. Tomorrow we will be doing a special Golf clinic with fathers and sons introducing them to the game that we love. While this is a private charity event at a private venue, I’m posting this because I want to encourage everyone to share whatever gifts you have with those that are less fortunate. This is one of the ways that we move the needle for humanity. Let’s do it.
