The Black Agenda, No 1. Black Relationships

February is Black History Month.

 Each week we have discussed The Black Agenda and covered several topics. All those areas plus more need work but the number 1 agenda item is one Black people have to do for themselves.

  If Men and Women are to be two equal parts that come together as one then the number 1 thing to improve the condition of the Black Woman and Black Man should be improving how both relate to each other.

A part of the discussion is what it is like to raise a single child as a single parent from the point of view of the female parent raising a Black boy. What it is like to grow up as the child of a single parent and the impacts it has on how that child view relationship, Mother, Father, Women, Men, Womanhood and Fatherhood.
