Black Man in Crisis: Part III - "In-to-Me-and- C" Apostle-Dr. Terry Dixon, Ph.D

Published: Feb. 18, 2016, 3 p.m.

Counseling psychologists Michelle Edmonds, M.A., M.Ed., \xa0and Apostle, Terry Dixon, Ph.D. \xa0discuss issues facing the African American male of today.

The series is in honor of all Black men, specifically, \xa0Black History month in the US and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, globally

Contrary to popular belief, the Black male is very accustomed to laboring and in fact, that may be the root challenge with their ability to communicate in relationships. They have learned to value \xa0action over talking and feelings. Women, on the other hand, devalue labor and want more talking, feeling and emotion. This profound difference exists between all men and women but is even more profound for the Black man, who has been historically trained (and valued) to perform.
