I want to clearly say that African Americans have not been programmed to fail I scrutinize the dynamics and struggles of the African American family and how it can overcome adversity by applying biblical principles. I point out that Africans were never cursed and confirm it by looking at scripture closely. I encourage black men to be committed to their families and for spouses to help and support them. I examine some of the major changes in American culture today: marriage and gender have been redefined. But God's Word is immutable.
