My mother is the strongest women in the world because she had me at the age of 14. She told me it took her 18 hours of labor; while the umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck; the doctors had to perform a emergency C-section. Ever since then I’ve told myself since it was a struggle getting me here it’s gone be a struggle to take me it out.

Growing up in a low-income neighborhood where all you saw was abuse, violence, and poverty was a constant challenge to overcome barriers- both invisible and visible. It was hard to overcome these barriers because I was constantly living with a little fear in the pit of my stomach. Living in a neighborhood where there are few opportunities and even fewer resources in school made it extremely challenging for me to graduate from high school. I always thought to myself, "What if all that I achieved was suddenly taken away from me", "What if I could not provide for my family anymore" and even "How do I make my ancestors proud?" As I was growing up in this chaotic world, entrepreneurship was never mentioned by the adults in my life, and I would have never thought one day I would be an entrepreneur; but luckily that is what life had in store for me. As I began to listen and learn from others, I was able to become fearless. Now, I can use my story to help others overcome that same fear that many of us have. Someone once told me, "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in every one of us. And as we let our own lights shine, we give others permission to do the same". I believe as we overcome fear together, we should help others do the same by contributing to their success

I created BMM because Black men need their own spaces. Black men need spaces where they can be free from the mainstream stereotypes and marginalization that permeate every other societal space we occupy. They need spaces where they can be tjier authentic selves without people’s judgment and insecurity muzzling thier expressions.When black men are together, there can be healing. They can reclaim parts of themselves that have been repressed. They can redefine themselves and support one another in embracing who they are. In these spaces, they will share stories about the discrimination they’ve faced, and find understanding and support. They can define themselves on their own terms by sharing their experiences in integrated spaces often means preparing to defend their anger and frustration.
