Father To Son: Ode To Our Black Young

Father to Son: Ode to Black Boys is a spoken word testimony to the phenomenal journey of African American people. A dying father's inspired and hopeful last conversation with his 17-year-old son serves as the context for this uplifting and powerful narrative. Jaiya John's compassionate voice weaves a rich Kente cloth tapestry of Love, celebration, challenge, and honor. Father to Son, with its rich rhythmic wordplay, flavored with a gumbo recipe for Self-Love in both males and females, frames the journey of African American boys into manhood. Here is a role call for the spirit warrior in us who wants our families to be whole. Come beat the drum.
