The State of America’s Fathers

July 2, 2016 By Nathaniel Turner

State of America's Fathers

A short while ago, I had both the honor and privilege to attend the 1st ever State of America's Fathers Summit.  No different than any other high-level meeting, in attendance was a who’s who list of the top minds and advocates for an improved state of fatherhood in America.  Full disclosure, yours truly was not invited because he was considered to ...

Happy Father’s Day, Invisible Man

Happy Father's Day, Invisible Man

  In 1979, as a freshman in high school, I read a book by Ralph Ellison that by title alone described precisely how I felt as ninth grader – Invisible Man.  I was fourteen, trying to find my way as a young man so I sort of understood why people did not recognize me as a man.  Still, I was perplexed by the feeling of ...

4 Parenting Tips From Muhammad Ali

June 10, 2016 By Nathaniel Turner

Muhammad Ali and Naeem

As is the case with many people, I too have a Muhammad Ali story.  Perhaps, it would be more accurate to state that I have several Muhammad Ali stories.  I could tell you about the overwhelming number of times my father lectured me about the greatness of Muhammad Ali.  A greatness that for my dad extended well beyond the boxing ring. While most ... [Continue Reading]

My Tiny Home, Nerf & African Violets

April 16, 2016 By Nathaniel Turner

The Story of A Tiny Home, Nerf Basketball & African Violet

Throughout the first decade of my life, not only did my family live in an apartment but we lived in a small apartment.  The total square footage of our apartment was 500 feet.  Today, if I lived in a 500 square foot home, I would be living in a tiny home. And living in a tiny home would afford me the opportunity to puff out my chest and brag ... [Continue Reading]

I Once Drug My Son Across The Track

Have you ever felt like someone was trying to drag your name through the mud?  Well I had one of those days’ yesterday.  In fact, the day was so bad that a more accurate depiction would be to say that yesterday it felt like someone was trying to drag me across an artificial track surface. It’s highly unlikely that you have any familiarity with ... [Continue Reading]

How A Black Dad Taught His Son to Surf

March 3, 2016 By Nathaniel Turner

How A Black Dad Taught His Son to Surf

  Let me guess.  When you saw the words “Black” and “surf” in the same sentence you knew this had to be a misprint.  I’m even going to go out on a limb and guess that you thought that there was no logical reason “Black” and “surf” should ever go in the same sentence.  Except for the sentence “Black people don’t surf”, the words “Black” and ...

January 28, 2016 By Nathaniel Turner

Hot Air Balloon - A Metaphor For Life

Most of you are unaware of this.  Scratch that… None of you know what I’m about to tell you.  This year, I’ve resolved to take a Hot Air Balloon ride. I’m not exactly sure when I first recognized that I wanted to go all Fifth Dimension but I must tell you that going up, up, and away is a priority for me.  In fact, sailing along in a Hot Air ...

It’s Not Too Late…You Can Do More!

October 24, 2015 By Nathaniel Turner

"It’s not too late…you can do more!”

Although it’s been a few weeks since I last posted, I can assure you that I haven’t been slacking.  Nope, I haven’t been sitting on an exotic beach sipping on fruity drinks with little umbrellas.  Nor have I been traveling with my son continuing our father-son tradition.  And as difficult as this might be to believe, I haven’t attended any FSU home ...

How Do You Love A Child?

September 25, 2015 By Nathaniel Turner

How Do You Love A Child?

Asking “how do you love a child” might sound like a ridiculous question but believe it or not the query is not as outlandish as you think. The majority of parents intuitively know the answer but our unconscious behavior often suggest something altogether different.

If You Don’t Want Humble Pie, Don’t Eat The Arrogance Cake!

September 10, 2015 By Nathaniel Turner

Glimmer of Hope

A couple months ago, I wrote about having to endure the insufferable taste of humble pie.  The vividness of the event remains so agonizing clear that I can still recall every single excruciating digestible second.  It’s as if a steaming heaping helping of humble pie is being served to me right now. Lest you forget, humble pie is like that yucky ... [Continue Reading]
