Ode To Dad

Ok, I want to create an “Ode To Dad” and need your help. I put it out there but the response wasn’t what I was looking for so I’m asking Omari Hardwick, Kevin Hart and Jeff Clanagan to help me make this a success.

Please add a verse. The only requirement is that you sue Ode to Dad in your verse. It doesn’t have to rhyme. Here is what I have so far

Ode To Dad

Ode to Dad, Ode to Dad, the only one I ever had
Not always there but don’t be fooled, on many issues I was schooled (me)

Ode to Dad, you were loved while you were here and you’re cherished now that you’re gone. (Marcus Wolfe)

Ode to dad, his name was Bill, but we called him “Dollar”, because whenever you were broke, you only had to holler. To the rescue he would come, not a question he would ask nor did he pass judgment, just came up with the cash. (Michele Tuck-Ponder)

Promises Kept

I was listening to the radio today and the host loved a particular song and asked everyone to buy it. I was moved by the act of one giant helping an up and comer. I’m certainly no giant but I would like everyone to spread the word about Hilary Beard‘s new book PROMISES KEPT. This book presents 10 parenting and educational strategies that researchers have discovered can assist parents, educators, and other members of their proverbial Village to help Black boys become the happy, healthy, well-educated, well-developed people they are capable of being.

The book is a companion to the film American Promise. This book is more than a must read, it is a must do! If we are to make the world a better place, it starts with our children and the problems surrounding African American boys have reached epidemic proportions.

Let’s participate in the discussion.

I purchased my book on Amazon. Hilary is touring the nation taking about strategies which can begin to help the nation benefit from happy, healthy, well-educated, well-developed people African American boys are capable of being. Check her out at http://www.hilarybeard.com/books/
