101 Things Every Boy/Young Man of Color Needs to Know is the critically acclaimed book by Author, LaMarr Darnell Shields.

Join us tonight as Lamarr talks about his book, his mentorship program and the film based on the book.

Boys and young men of color need and want advice on all kinds of issues, for all kinds of problems, questions, and concerns. Often, they don't know who or how to ask. 101 Things Every Boy/Young Man of Color Should Know provides the page turning resource needed to inspire every boy of color to do their best. This book is a collection of motivational messages from men who are concerned about the well-being of young males of color. The foreword was written by Congressmen Jesse Jackson, Jr, and the introduction was written by David Banks, founder of the Eagle Heights Academy for Young Men.

101 Things Every Boy/Young Man of Color Should Know was the motivation behind the critically acclaimed documentary Men II Boys, by filmmaker Janks Morton.
