The name says it all. We've gone back & forward about the name or at least, I've waged an internal battle over the name and carefully brought the subject matter to the attention of our team.

Are we making ourselves prone to subjugation and stigmatism?  Or are we speaking openly and honestly with Men who may not see themselves in popular profiles of (positive) masculinity & fatherhood?  Therefore, within this context and for the audience we write, the answer is YES, the name stays!

Lastly & most importantly, this conversation gives us a medium to redefine the narrative of fatherhood, add a voice long missing from the conversation of parenting - particularly fatherhood in the African-American community, and perhaps, change the negative stereotypes to the world.
