CAAAI sends wonderful greetings to the men and fathers who diligently keep up the good work and maintain their commitment to the pledge we have undertaken to uphold Mr. Robert Pinkerton’s dream. To honor each one of you, this Special Father’s Day message is dedicated to you.
HAPPY FATHER’s DAY!
As we celebrate Father’s Day, June 19, this is a good time to refresh our intellect with the poem “Mother to Son” by Langston Hughes. The research and historical context purport that the poem was published at a time and had relevance to the civil rights era that included the struggles blacks faced in the racial divide in this country. Even though historical events still present themselves, the poem still depicts life’s challenges that mothers, and all parents face today to survive. That conversation is so relevant and continues as mothers are still speaking to sons who are now grown up and are fathers of their children.
