The “Dad Gang” took names and changed diapers on Father’s Day in Brooklyn.

The proactive group of community leaders took over the entranceway to Prospect Park by the Grand Army Plaza to put a stop to the myth that Black fathers are absent from their children’s lives.

June 20 not only marked Father’s Day, but it also marked the second March of Dads rally, where dozens of fathers strode through the streets by Prospect Park with their children in hand, in strollers, and on their shoulders. The march highlighted men of color within the community who enthusiastically defy racial stereotypes by playing pivotal roles within the family unit.

In addition to breaking down stereotypes, the march afforded attendees an opportunity to bond with their children while also offering support to fellow dads. On Saturday, coordinators sponsored a giveaway, donating 200 strollers in Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.

Sorry but that's no myth, fatherless homes (72%) is the biggest cause of poverty and misery in the black community. I'm sure that most of the 28% of dads in the house are good fathers, but there's that issue of the tens of thousands of empty households
