This reminds me of a program entitled, "Brother2Brother" at many of the PWIs. In it, the members met weekly or bi-weekly to discuss issues and triumphs of Black men on campus. We received money from the Black Student Union executive board and scheduled cultural activities like visits to museums or movies as a cohort. It was good to be in the company of positive brothers. The females had a similar group also.
One program that stood out was the Wednesday "Black Knot." It in, each Black man would wear a shirt and tie. We received numerous compliments and winks from the ladies and administration on our concentrated effort to present ourselves in a positive lights. Even more, all of the fraternity men participated too. It would have to be one of my more positive undergraduate experiences.
