Black Men and Love

- The discourse for discussing black men and relationships is... spotty to say the least. Between the rise of certain relationship commentators, the "Divestment" movement, and everything in between, there's a lot of people saying a lot of stuff at the extremes of this topic.
While there are important nuggets of information and discussions going on, I can't help but feel like there's a few important pieces of the puzzle that haven't been talked about yet. With that in mind, I figured I'd try to add my two cents, talk about a few of my favorite movies (Love Jones and Love and Basketball) that I haven't seen people talk about in a while, and bring up a few more examples of how black men experience and receive love.
To add to the pot, I also brought in a few friends from various communities, ages, and experiences to speak on what they see and feel as well. So we cover a bit of everything, being vulnerable, lacking emotional connection, playing a man's role, and the closest thing a man has to lacking pretty privilege... being broke!
All that and more on this episode of the Black Media Breakdown.
