NEW VIDEO: Beyonce – Formation

Beyoncé has done it again! Queen B shut all the haters up in one 5 minute video. What I got from the video is that she is unapologetic. She is proud of who she is and where she came from. She is also proud to let everyone one that she loves her husband and her beautiful daughter no matter what haters have to say. I feel as if there is a reference to Travon Martin and being anti-cops. What I love most is the emphasis on black power. Queen B never fails to amaze me. Love it! OnPoint!

Stevie J Talk About Social Peer Pressure in African American Communities

Todays question is “How do we improve social peer pressure in the African American communities?”.

More dad need to be present in the household that'll breed more self esteem & confidence https://t.co/vaY88EPWjI

Stevie hit the question right on the nail. We absolutely need our young black men to feel as though they are wanted by their fathers. We need them to spend that quality time that every child needs. Mothers can do a lot but they can’t fill the void of a father. For example a young boy that has only been raised by his mother doesn’t understand certain things his other has been telling him about manhood. It could be that he looking at her like how could you possibly know. Which is normal because girls do it to when their dad tells them something about womanhood.

Social peer pressure is easy to fall in when you are looking to fill a void. When someone feels as though they need comfort not physically but emotionally they can find themselves in the wrong places.

In conclusions father and mothers please be present in your child’s life in order to lessen the number of social peer pressure that is dragging our young black people to the dark side.
