Has Kevin Samuels Sold Out the Black Manosphere? (Brittany Renner Interview)
This past week the black manosphere influencer, Kevin Samuels had a sit-down interview with the "infamous" Brittany Renner. If you haven't seen it, I'll leave a link to the video in the description. Unsurprisingly, the reviews have been mixed. Some think the interview was well done and respectful, others think Kevin Samuels sold out by not going for the jugular. Some are even upset that the interview took place. I'd like to highlight several reasons why this was a brilliant move by Kevin Samuels from a marketing perspective and I have a special request for the black manosphere at the end so stay tuned.

Black Manosphere Review: Oshay Duke Jackson!!
Should Black Christian men consume content by the Black Manosphere? The question is going to become more contentious in the coming months. Why? Because as the manosphere engages black culture, it will inevitably make its way into the church, and pastors and church leaders will be asked to give an opinion. I believe that there will be three camps forming around this question. Camp 1 will say stay away at all cost. Camp 2 will secretly watch while agreeing with Camp 1 and Camp 3, which is the one I'm a part of, which will study the success, extract the truth from the movement, and use it to promote Christ's gospel to a larger audience. I believe that we can consume the content if our powers of discernment are sharpened if we recognize that all image-bearers of God have consciences that teach them right from wrong and if we admit that they are addressing an underserved community, namely the black men. To that end, I'm starting a series where I will review black manosphere content creators and hopefully help Black Christian men successfully navigate the black manosphere. First up, it's Oshay Duke Jackson.

Black People: Short, Fat and Proud Of That?!?!
We are "short, fat, and proud of that" succinctly describes the Black community's relationship to gluttony. The quaint lyric sung by Winnie the Pooh in the Disney classic, The Many Adventures of Winnie The Pooh is comical when applied to the make-believe bear. Sadly, however, it is tragic when describing the gluttony destroying the black community. According to Blackdemographics.com, Black people are the most obese ethnic group in America. We suffer from the dreaded "co-morbidities" more than any other ethnic group. However, In an odd twist, according to Pew Research Center black people are the most religious ethnicity in America, We attend church more frequently, regard religion as important in our daily lives, and have historically regarded faith in God as a primary cause for our behavior. Why is this odd? It is odd because if you know anything about the Bible, you know that it does not speak glowingly about gluttony. So why are the most religious people, who esteem God & the Bible highly, also marked by a lack of self-control in our eating habits? I believe that the reason is three-fold. First, we have embraced shameful behavior by changing language. Second, our men have been systematically removed from the home by a combination of the government and black women, leaving multiple generations unprotected and without direction. Finally, because it lacks works, our faith has become largely dead.
