Black women are our mothers aunts, grandmothers, sisters, cousins, daughters, and [in some cases]our friends. That said, often we don't see [many] black men PUBLICALLY advocating for black women's issues they way that they've campaigned for us in the past.
Now let me say, that not every black woman has our best interests out there, that said, I would like to see more unity within the community and a big part of that raising awareness to the black women out there who are also victims of the same shootings that black men are (even if possibly to a lesser degree).
Do you think that there is a lot of self-hatred among black men that's been swept under a rug for too long?
What do you that we as black men can do to better advocate for black women? How can we work to eliminate misogyny?
How do we advocate for OURSELVES without neglecting the hardships of women?

Advocating for black families is advocating for black women as well as black men and black children.
The black men you're looking for are those of us who are already working to improve black lives and black families...as opposed to agrandizing themselves.
Has there being a feeling among Black men that Black women have thrown many of them under the bus with the advent of the modern feminism movement?. I see a greater divide now than most any time before. How can that be addressed and what needs to be done in the Black community to facilitate change.
Black women currently earn about two thirds of all African-American bachelor's degree awards, 70 percent of all master's degrees, and more than 60 percent of all doctorates. Black women also hold a majority of all African-American enrollments in law, medical, and dental schools.
All of my sisters out earned their husbands as did most of my female relatives. I never heard of a "stay at home mom"until I had white friends in college. Black men as a group are not in a possition to really help black women any more than they are helping themselves.

While true, I don't think the "stay at home mom" issue is relevant to the problem of black men and black women taking care of one another rather than being at war with each other.
Because I discuss black related issues with blacks only. Why would I discuss them with anyone else?
Do you discuss your family business with others? I was taught not to do that by wise parents.
Now you don't have to wonder why!
