Believe me when I say, I'm not writing this to be controversal; and neither is my male ego so large that I'm not willing to hear a reasonable and rational response, because I don't count myself to know all that there is to know about any subject, also I would much rather open myself up to ridicule and misunderstanding and possible learn something, than to keep my mouth shut for fear of rejection. So hear me out, Essence Magazine calls it the "NEW BLACK POWER", what does that mean especially when black women, (historically in this country) have always been in closer proximity to the power than black men, so what's NEW? Are they sugguesting Black Power without the presence of black men, it is interesting that this terminology is applied when discussing black women as if black men have always been in positions of power and authority. Does this "NEW BLACK POWER" include your fathers, brothers, and sons. Except for the two black men that are in Obama's cabinet, a person could almost get the impression that he, (Obama), was attempting to be the only rooster on the farm. If this "NEW BLACK POWER" doesn't make a purposeful and determined effort to elevate black men then all "EWE" are going to see is the continuation of the proverbial Lamb to the slaughter, and that lamb being the Black Man.
Be Blessed, Shalom!

I dont know much about this topic to reply but really wonder why not one else has replied since it is about 5 hours since you posted this.
There are two problems with your entire debate. First and foremost is the fact that it originated in Essence, secondly true wealth is created via business ownership and yes black men still have the upper hand in that area.
