Our offices have a cleaning lady that is a very hard worker and an exceptional human being. I think the world of her and she is black. She has raised an exceptional young man through high school and into college. He works part time and goes to college as well. She and I agree the key to keeping him safe and moving forward is the people with whom he associates. More than ever before young men (and women to a lesser degree) must be very guarded regarding who they choose as friends. They must seek out age appropriate friends and older adults to help them make the right choice at every turn. As an aside I am sending no mention of the your man from the accused fraternity that took his own life soon after the article was released.
Good truths!
