About Last Saturday...

Excellent meeting, men---

For those who missed our discussion of The Art of Manliness, or came late, hopefully Hobbs will have the audio up sooner rather than later.

And on Saturday, July 24^th, at 6 p.m., we will hold our first Black Men Read?! Summer Screening! Bring your wives or significant others or interested friends. We’ll do it in at UR, exact location to be determined.

Have good summers---

Bert Ashe
