Why Black Dads Get a Bad Rap

Historical stereotypes perpetuated by American culture claim that Black men are absent from the home and are bad dads because of it. Author Damon Grayson says: “Imprisonment has taken many Black fathers away from the family, which results in a lack of the male figure in the home. Plus, the media often portray Black men in a negative way.” Damon is a hands-on single dad of three sons who overcame growing up on the mean streets of Compton, Calif., to become a successful DJ, entrepreneur and acclaimed author of “When His Ways Meet Yours: When You Love You He Will Follow Suit.” Contact Damon Grayson at (760) 490-0656; dgrayson@rtirguests.com
