Minister Louis Farrakhan's call for 10,000 Fearless Men to face and defeat urban violence has been interpreted by the mass media as a call to attack white people, but in reality, just like in Million Man March to Washington DC 20 years ago, the call was for internal repair of family relations, not a malicious attack on any other group of people. Men are needed to be fathers to the thousands of young black men who have been raised in fatherless homes. The question is, how do these men enter their lives and steer them toward a righteous future, when they have been so thoroughly corrupted by msguided men who have taught them to abuse women? The cycle of violence will continue unless men teach young men how to nurture women, the ones who are giving birth to the next generation. Can 10,000 men correct a culture of physical and emotional abuse of women, which leads to the creation of angry, violent children? What teachings are necessary to change the mindset of tomorrows men, and mold them into husbands and fathers who protect and provide for women, rather than "players" and "baby daddys"? Do faith leaders play a role, or have they lost credibility in the eyes of young men because of their own scandals and hypocrisy? Where will the 10,000 fearless men come from who are ready to face wayward youth?
