New Visions for Black Men Paperback

Visions for Black Men became the lifeline that helped me go beyond the rhetoric of manhood and dared me to develop a manhood strategy. I can tell you that Visions was one of the many tools I needed to begin a journey of Manhood that has and I pray, won’t ever end. For years it was my go to text when I spoke to boiys and men about self development, manhood and the strenght found in the relationships of real men.
–From Foreword by Jeffrey Johnson, CEO of JIJ Comminucations-Cleveland, Ohio

Over the past decade, I have included Dr. Akbar’s model of “males to boys, to men,” in several workshops with young Black males and the teachers, parents and other adults that interact and care for them. The principles are timeless, but I am ecstatic that he is releasing New Visions to introduce the model and his insights to a new generation of Black males.
