I firmly believe as a CARD CARRYING BLACK MAN that the judicial system as it operates today is designed to CASTRATE, EFFEMINIZE and/or INCARCERATE black males for the sake of control.
This not only effects black men because we see white men getting caught up as collateral damage in traps meant to snare black men. Of all women, BLACK WOMEN know of these traps more than any females in the states!
"The Mask You Live In" follows boys and young men as they struggle to stay true to themselves while negotiating America's limited definition of masculinity.
Pressured by the media, their peer groups, and even the adults in their lives, our protagonists confront messages encouraging them to disconnect from their emotions, devalue authentic friendships, objectify women, and resolve conflicts through violence.
International Men's Day symbol which represents strength and masculinity As you can see that the symbol is a handful of gold and a symbol of masculinity all this combined is receives "A large worth of male power", the symbol of the International Men's Day. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
These gender stereotypes interconnect with race, class, and circumstance, creating a maze of identity issues boys and young men must navigate to become "real" men.
It's Time to Speak Up for Male Victims of Domestic Violence!
Men's Rights Group of Arizona LLC: A Male Victim of Domestic Violence Speaks!
Hello Everyone,
In recent weeks there has been much speculation about my so-called “criminal past”. Today I want to clear up a few things as I move forward with my campaign to sit on the Central Arizona College Board. Therefore,
Additionally, I would also like to point out Lando Voyles was a major player in how my case ended for the worse. For all intense and purposes, Lando Voyles and Richard Wintory knew Judge Lorona in the Eloy Justice Court had a vested interest in finding men guilty of domestic violence. Judge Lorona was part owner and manager of the PinalHispanic Council where all her domestic violence offenders were court ordered to attend classes. While the Presiding Judge and Board President of the Pinal Hispanic Council she diverted court funds into her domestic violence programs she operated and managed. Lando Voyles and Richard Wintory knew this court was corrupt but didn’t care so long as they kept winning cases for this year’s reelection cycle.
I fully plan to run and keep my position on the Central Arizona College Board. I hope that once you see the full experience I endured as a male victim of domestic violence you many understand why this period of my life was extremely painful and life altering.
Please Read and share this post. Thank you for your continued support!

Family violence is a constant problem, but the discussion is often limited to female victims. Many men also deal with violence and abuse, but perhaps lack access to the same resources. Does our approach to this issue need to change? Are solutions to family violence gender-specific? We talk to Dustin Tkachuk, from Legal Aid Alberta and Earl Silverman, from the Family of Men Support Society.
Information about both these organizations can be found here:

"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home." (Tecumseh).
