Overview

Aiding young men of color with the building blocks of leadership is a necessary tool and the BuildingBlocks Workbook uses the Common Standards of education to aid in this journey of discovery for young minds in need of character and consciousness.

This is not a coincidence, but a consequence of being Black in America. The human journey is not easy, and destiny can be difficult to embrace. For Black America, a silent genocide mounts within . . . This is not an issue back ordered from Amazon. This is about circumnavigating a difficult juncture in our nation's social history. We are in this place because we are not Europe, Asian, African and Oceania, South American, Australian, and Canadian, Central American or Mexican; we are all of them.
