Founder Brandon Frame Award Upstanding Black Men Nationally Every Father's Day

Embarking on its 2nd2nd inaugural celebration, The Black Man Can awarded 13 men in 12 categories helping to honor and salute these young men for their outstanding contributions making it a very special Father's Day.

The site, which has featured over 150 extraordinary men and women and has received over three-million page views globally has been recognized as a media reformer, providing news of positive African-Americans to counteract many of the negatives.

Not meeting his own father until he was 18, Founder of The Black Man Can, Brandon Frame, an intentional champion of a cause, had a desire to seek out positive Black male role models, finding none; he created the website, to counter the stereotypes he found with positive stories of Black men and women globally. Because of its impact, The Black Man Can has been recently featured in JET Magazine's "Men of Honor" (May 2013), UptownMagazine.com (May 2013), Afro.com (May 2013), CNN Money, Black Celebrity Giving, Urban Health Magazine, CBS College Sports, etc., to name a few.

Congratulations to all the winners and for Brandon Frame for creating this dynamic opportunity for Black Men to be recognized for their awesome contributions!

For those of you who missed the Dream Project Symposium (Atlanta), make a note to yourself to NEVA do that again!

We had an incredible time assisting with the production of this grand project! Egami Consulting's CEO, Teneshia Jackson Warner is a true courageous and bold visionary who obeyed the calling to produce this grand event that had the likes of Cathy Hughes (TV One), Russell Simmons (RUSH Communications, Global Grind, Phat Farm & Def Jam), Will Packer (Think Like a Man, Rainforest Films) and Master Life Coach, Sylvia High.

Attendees were encouraged to tap into their kid-selves and go back to those dreams they've always had, abandoned and to give them new life! Hughes was inspiring as she shared about the ups and downs of dreaming against the greater rewards of never giving up and having such great audacity!  The wisdom and knowledge we were privy to is incomparable so all I can tell you is to make sure to sign up for the next one!

In the meantime, enjoy these media clips and pictures and SEE YA NEXT YEAR!
