IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week's feature is Mike Smith, reppin' Baltimore, Maryland to the fullest! He is the dedicated father of three children, Li, Mya & MJ. Mike is an Analyst & Personal Trainer. Nominated by his wife, , she states: “My husband Mike is a great father because he has always put God and his family first — not just in words, but in how he lives every single day. He walks with integrity in everything he does, and that’s something our children get to witness in real time. Whether he’s working hard to provide, training others to be their best, or simply spending quality time with us, he shows up fully and intentionally.

Mike has a heart to help everyone — he gives his time, his energy, and his wisdom without hesitation. But what I admire most is how he leads our family with patience, love, and discipline. He teaches our kids the value of respect, hard work, and faith by example. He doesn’t just talk about being a good man — he lives it.

Even on the tough days, he never folds. He remains steady, focused, and grounded in his purpose. He makes sure our home is filled with love, structure, and peace. Our children know they are protected, supported, and deeply loved because of the father he chooses to be every day. Much love to for loving his children wholeheartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood. ✊🏾🖤

IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week's feature is Devario Allen, reppin' Atlanta, Georgia to the fullest! He is the husband of Ce’Erica Allen and the father of three amazing kids, Camille, Carmen and Calvin! He states: "I am a self made entrepreneur since 23. Real estate investor, financial advisor and coach! Being a good father isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. I show up, every day, with strength and endurance, no matter what life throws my way. I don’t make excuses — I make adjustments. My family sees consistency, not complaints. I lead by example — through discipline, integrity, and hard work — because my kids deserve to see what accountability and perseverance look like in real time. I teach them that real strength isn’t loud; it’s steady. And above all, I’m not afraid to submit to God. I know that leadership starts with humility — knowing who I follow before expecting anyone to follow me. That’s what keeps me grounded, guided, and growing. Being a “real man” isn’t about control or image — it’s about covering your family, protecting their peace, and walking in purpose. That’s what I strive to do every single day." Much love to for loving his children wholeheartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood. **ATLStandUp** **Camille** **Carmen** **Calvin** Credit: Credit:

IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week's feature is Jermaine Evans, reppin' Newark, NJ to the fullest! He is the proud father of one son, Jaxson Evans (6). He says, "I am here to show everyone it’s not about where you are from or where you’re at... it’s about (GOD) Prayers, hardwork, & determination!!!! I was a young man who grow up without my father and never had an relationship with him as a kid growing up, I was fortunate to have coaches like and my moms to keep me somewhat out of the way of gang violence and street activities.. growing up in Newark, NJ. Things were not always good on my end, I had to graduate from a redirection program in order to get my high school diploma and kept finding myself getting in trouble so I used sports to help me relocate after high school where i attended college in New Jersey at Fairleigh Dickinson university then transferred to university of South Carolina, where I was kicked out and then enrolled into Benedict college in Columbia, South Carolina. have earned a degree in criminal justice and business management. My love for son is beyond this world even tho he continues to beg me for a sibling, LOL! I've always installed in my son that no matter what thy shall always honor their mother and Father/always keep your head up unless you’re Praying/to always finish what you started and never let anyone take your amazing heart and kindness for weakness. So many men will never get the roses they deserve while we are able to receive them and smell them. Most of roses and appreciation comes. We are no longer here. So on my behalf, Of a real man, I would like to encourage other men to keep going and keep pushing even when you feel like giving up, there is always someone who is admiring your strength and your energy and pray that they were in your shoes. I gave all glory to God without him. I am nothing. Amen 🙏🏾 JAYEVANS, JEVANSX2, the best has yet to come. Much love to for loving his children wholeheartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood. **NewarkStandUp** **Jaxson** Credit: Credit:

IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week's feature is John Thomas Candley, reppin' to the fullest! He is the father two children, Emery(7) and Grayson Candley(6). John worked at FedEx recently resigned to pursue building a non-profit organization geared towards fathers who are felons or incarcerated help them connect with their children both in and when they come home. He is a good father because every day God wakes him up, he chooses them. Growing up, he never knew what he wanted to be in life until he had his first child. It’s honestly what truly made him become a Real Man. It's not what he thought being a real man was supposed to be. It forced him to be a better person, to strive for more, and not settle for anything less than what his dad provided for him. John says, It’s an honor to be their father, and to me that’s a Real Man! Much love to for loving his children wholeheartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood. **BayAreaStandUp** **Emery** **Grayson** Credit: Credit: #

IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week's feature is Dustin Smith, reppin' Atlanta, Georgia, to the fullest! He is the proud father of one daughter, London Lamb. Nominated by his wife , she states: "Today, I’m celebrating the incredible man I get to call my husband. Dustin works with MARTA, but that’s just one part of who he is. His true passion lies in fashion—he designs and models suits that exude style and sophistication. It’s inspiring to see him bring his creative vision to life. But what makes him an even greater man, and an amazing father, is how he lives his life with purpose and love. He’s deeply involved in our church, always giving back and serving others. His faith in God has been transformative—it’s been such a blessing to watch how God has worked in his life, shaping him into the strong, loving, and compassionate man he is today. And let’s not forget, he’s also the one who’s always in the kitchen, cooking up new dishes for our family. His love for cooking is just another way he shows how much he cares. London and I are extremely grateful. His dedication, faith, and love set an example that our family will always cherish. Much love to for loving his family wholeheartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood. *AtlantaStandUp** **London** Credit: Credit: #

IT'S MONDAY!!!!! This week, we take a pause to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., reppin' Atlanta, GA to the fullest!!!! Dr. King is the father of four children, Yolanda King (1955–2007), Martin Luther King III (b. 1957), Dexter Scott King (b. 1961), and Bernice King (b. 1963). Today, the USA celebrates his legacy, but Dr. King was assassinated 53 years ago on a Memphis hotel balcony, and in the sands of time, it is easy to forget that Dr. King was a real person. A man with a beautiful wife and family. A man who became the public face of a movement. A man who tirelessly worked, marched, got arrested, spoke eloquently on the topics of peace, love, and justice, and ultimately gave his life to the cause of racial equality. Yolanda, Martin, Dexter, and Bernice King lost their father. The loss has not gotten easier in 53 years, but his three surviving children each bear it on their own terms. For more than a decade, they have had to do this without two of the family’s cornerstones: their mother, Coretta Scott King, who died in 2006, and eldest child, Yolanda, who died in 2007. But they all are a testament of their father's love, guidance, leadership, and legacy of what it is to be a great father! Dr. King displayed values, hard work, faith in God, faith in his dream, love for his children and most of all, love for humanity! Much love to Dr. King for loving the HUMAN RACE, and his family whole heartedly and being that positive light in Black Fatherhood.
