Publisher's Summary

In 2013, CNN journalist, Don Lemon, said, "more than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock. That means more than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born to absent fathers. And studies show that the lack of a male role model for said children is an express train right to prison, continuing the cycle."

This statement is problematic in many ways, and there's data out now that actually combats this common myth. Dear Black Dads: Wisdom For Your Journey to Fatherhood aims to combat these outdated stereotypes and offer real perspectives from real Black dads who are looking to create new narratives for the Black community through fatherhood. This labor of love is for the Black male who's looking for encouragement and light for one of the biggest roles in their lives.
