"Improving the quality of the Black community by reaffirming the vitality of the Black male."
For over 35 years, Concerned Black Men of Massachusetts has mentored, taught, and stood beside young Black men through the Paul Robeson Institute — a fellowship built on brotherhood, presence, and purpose.
For over 30 years, our Saturday school has met boys where they are — three cohorts, one continuous journey from childhood to manhood. 120+ young men, 104+ hours a year, at Northeastern University and around Greater Boston.
Where the journey begins — curiosity, confidence, and the first lessons of self-development.
Guiding young men through the passage into responsibility, identity, and purpose.
Career aspirations, college pathways, and leadership for the young men closest to launch.
"All pull together" — the opening call.
The seven principles, lived out loud.
Closing in brotherhood, every week.
