Black man, what is your relationship with POWER?

The power you hold. The power used against you. The power you were taught to fear—or told you could never have.

From slavery’s legacy to racism and policing, this question carries history. It can shape how we enter a room, respond to authority, and decide whether it feels safe to speak.

Where have you felt powerful? Where have you felt you had to make yourself smaller?

And when you hold power—in your home, your relationships, or your community—how do you use it? What patterns do you repeat? What do you choose to break?

This Tuesday, Undugu’s Chop-It-Up makes room for that conversation.

You don’t have to have the answers. You don’t have to share to belong. Bring your perspective. Make room for another.

What are you bringing to the village?

Every person walks into the room carrying something.

Knowledge. Experience. A connection. An opportunity. A lesson learned. A door you can open. Time you're willing to give.

But sometimes, the harder question is:

What do I need?

Guidance. Support. Information. An introduction. An opportunity. A different perspective.

Resource Exchange exists because a brother shouldn't have to search outside the village before discovering what may already exist within it.

Brothers: Come ready to share what you can offer—and be willing to voice what you need.

Sisters & Community Partners: Come ready to contribute your expertise, resources, knowledge, opportunities, and connections in service of the brotherhood and the communities we're building together.

A resource can't help anyone if nobody knows it exists.
A need can't be answered if nobody is willing to voice it.

That's the exchange.

UNDUGU SPEAKS 🎙️

Three voices.
Three reflections.
One room.

This Tuesday, brothers step forward to speak—not to perform, but to be heard.

💬 Brother Reflections
Nick • Odane • Antonioe

🎤 MC: Phillip Michael
❓ Brother Question: Jalen

The Time Keeper and Filler Word Counter will be announced in the room.

Every voice brings a perspective.
Every reflection asks us to listen deeper.
Every question has the potential to change the conversation.

Speak. Listen. Reflect. Grow. Together.

This is Undugu Speaks.

Black Man, what is your plan for death?

We prepare for careers.
We prepare for marriage.
We prepare for children.
We prepare for retirement.

But how many of us prepare the people we love for a world where we are no longer here?

Do they know your wishes?
Do they know what you've built—and how to protect it?
Have you passed down the knowledge only you carry?
Who are you passing the torch to?

And beyond preparation, there is an even deeper question:

Are you living a life worth celebrating?

Tomorrow at Chop It Up, we're having a conversation many men avoid until circumstances force us to have it.

Death. Legacy. Family. Grief. Preparation. Purpose.

This isn't a conversation about fear.

It's a conversation about responsibility—and how intentionally we choose to live while we're still here.

You don't have to have the answers.

Come have the conversation.

“What does masculinity look like to you?”

This brother’s answer isn’t the same one he would’ve given growing up.

Eight years of therapy got him here — to a place where he can look his three sons in the eye and say “I love you.” Something that wasn’t modeled for him. Something he had to build on purpose.

Masculinity isn’t fixed. It’s something we get to redefine over time — in how we show up, how we speak, how we love the people closest to us.

That’s the work Undugu Speaks is built around. Communication. Emotional intelligence. Brotherhood.

“Black man, what’s your relationship with fear?”

This brother’s story starts with a question he asked himself as a kid: why was I so scared?

At 18, he did 20 years in prison. Inside, he had homeboys who had his back - but their version of “having his back” meant throwing him into fights instead of letting him get beat up.

Looking back now, he sees it clearly: the fear was always there. That’s just how he grew up.

Undugu Speaks is where men unpack questions like this - what fear really is, what it costs us, and what it means to actually deal with it instead of masking it.

Communication. Emotional intelligence. Brotherhood.

“Black man, what’s your relationship with silence?”

This brother’s answer starts with noise - growing up the oldest of nine, silence wasn’t something he ever really had.

When he finally got his own space as an adult, silence felt uncomfortable at first. Like doing nothing. Like being idle.

It took time to see it differently — as room to slow down, reflect, and actually think.

If you’re a brother looking for a space to work on communication and processing your thoughts in real time pull up to one of our sessions.

Communication. Emotional intelligence. Brotherhood.

“What’s one question you would never want someone to ask”

In this clip, a brother answers that honestly with no filter.

He talks about growing up angry, always ready to fight, always on guard. Then he says it plain: “I was raised by Kujo.”

That’s the weight some of us carry before we even know what to call it.

Undugu Speaks is where men of color sit down and unpack that - not to relive it, but to finally put some of it down. Communication. Emotional intelligence. Brotherhood.

When was the last time you felt heartbreak?

Not always the kind someone else causes. Sometimes it’s self-induced. The kind you sit with quietly, the kind that’s hardest to name out loud.

In this clip, a brother gets real about that feeling — and what it means to actually sit with it instead of running from it.

Undugu Speaks is a space for men of color to work through moments like this — building communication and emotional intelligence together, not alone.

Are you trying to become a better speaker? A better communicator at home, in the boardroom, in your own head?

If you’re chasing that kind of confidence, Undugu Speaks is where you build it.

Peep this clip: Brother Nasir stepping into role of “Brother Reflection” for Jalen after his share — breaking down amazing presence, audience engagement, and using his voice and body to drive a story home.

That’s the room. That’s the brotherhood. That’s the work.
