The Face of Black Men

Beyond the media myths - a look at the everyday lives of black men. Somewhere between the inaccurate and distorted media images of the black male super predator and the black male superhero, live the majority of black men. They are fathers, brothers, doctors, bloggers, editors, school teachers, accountants and more. Please join us in creating a powerful visual that will remind the world of the countless African American boys and men who are working to make this world a better place. Submit pictures and a brief description of the boys, men and male-identified folks in your life.

Be sure to follow our Pinterest board, too.

A project of the Maynard Institute.

Submit photos of & a description of the African American men you would like to celebrate

    A proud moment in my life. Using the biographies of Marcus Garvey and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., my sons and I created an e-book. I wrote the story, Patrick’s illustrations brought the text to life, and  with Andrew’s computer graphic skills, we have shared the story of Marcus and the Amazons.
