From the cities to the suburbs, from public schools to private colleges, from churches to mosques, from A Dream Deferred to I Am a Man, the lives of Black men matter. Not a bandwagon slogan but a rallying cry for equity . . . for justice . . . for a fullness of life. Happiness. Security. Manhood. The Color of My Resilience: A Guided Self-Care Journal for Black Men is intended to foster and support self-awareness and reflection in a safe environment. The depiction of more than a dozen images of Black men reflects the diversity of Black manhood. This guided journal will cast a spotlight into your heart, mind, and soul, then take you on a hero’s journey of self-discovery, reflection, and action. The guided journal will help you: Describe your struggles and successes Plan for and think about your self-care routines Assess your current self-care Identify your allies, values, aptitudes, interests, and strengths Examine your emotional triggers Plan long-and-short-term goals Get to know and understand yourself on a deep, meaningful level The book provides six different reflection strategies, as well as essays and a poem written by Black men. From a Meyerhoff Scholar graduate to a historian and educator to a poet and songwriter, these men have opened their hearts and shared their stories of resilience.

"If you’re looking to enhance your understanding of self-care practices, to identify your personal goals with clarity, to strengthen your understanding of your personal values and living in alignment with them, to connect deeper with yourself and reflect on crucial aspects of your identity, I encourage you to consider N.D.’s guided journals.

Alongside thoughtful and intentional prompts, you will find powerful imagery, quotes, poetry, and personal essays sprinkled throughout these journals – all of which help connect you to others’ life stories as you continue to embrace and cultivate your own. These guided journals are an invaluable resource for black men and women on their journeys towards deeper self-exploration and self-love."
