The challenges facing Black men

I’m concerned about the fact that black men are conspicuously absent from the recent diversity push in federal governance, Warnock aside. Many women of color but very few men. I’d like to find out why this is.

This is a good reporter, he is an advocate for mens issues, check out his other articles and his social media. He just released this:

Black men face many issues, nicely highlighted in the OP article. Its important to stress that many of the issues are male issues and affect all men or is due to them being black men specifically more than just being black.

One positive about discussions of black men is at least they are not attacked by gender supremacists for WhY ArE YoU TaLKinG AbOUtZ MeNz and also black men dont get blamed for the issues, which most other discussions about mens issues get by people, comments, writers and articles themselves etc

One thing they often forget is that when it comes to the crisis of innocent people being gunned down by police it is black men specifically who have it worst when it comes to execution by police. Black women don't really play a large factor in that issue. Whilst they are slightly more likely to be shot than white women they are still drastically less likely to die by police than both white and black men. The police abuse problem is very much a male issue.
