Boys All Over America Being Empowered by Principal Kafele’s “Message to Your Son” Series

Renowned High School Principal, Baruti Kafele

Jersey City, NJ — Renowned educator, Principal Baruti Kafele states emphatically that he has witnessed over the years enough mothers crying over their sons whom they have either lost to the streets or are slowly but surely losing to the streets. In an effort to help mothers rescue their sons and to in turn help them to develop the willingness to strive for excellence, he launched a YouTube video series entitled, Message to Your Son. It is comprised of over 150 short 3 – 6 minute “no frills, no edits, one-take” video clips where Principal Kafele speaks directly to boys of all ages and ethnicities about living productive lives.A recipient of the National Alliance of Black School Educators (NABSE) Hall of Fame Award, Principal Kafele knows something about motivating boys; particularly those labeled at-risk. As a former 14-year “Turnaround High School and Middle School Principal” in Newark and East Orange, NJ, he understood clearly the power in daily positive messages to students toward creating positive attitudes. He therefore took this approach to leading schools and applied it to development of Message to Your Son. Topics include but are not limited to: attitude, goal setting, planning, purpose, vision, determination, self-esteem, self-respect, decision-making, school behavior, bullying, distractions, temptations and so much more in an effort to motivate, educate and empower boys for success.

Parents are encouraged to watch theses videos along with their sons daily and to engage them in discussions over the topics viewed. Educators are also encouraged to show these videos in their schools and classrooms (girls love them too) as often as possible and to engage the boys, or all of the students in follow up discussions.  All content is most appropriate for school.

Message to Your Son is now 150+ videos strong, with a new video posted every Saturday morning.
