We kicked off year three of the Black Male Initiative with Dr. Rani Whitfield of Baton Rouge, LA, also known as Tha Hip Hop Doc.

He began the day talking with the women who are participating in Platinum By Design. Then, he got to the brothers. Dr. Whitfield talked with us about our health, including eating, exercise, and sexual health. He has developed a unique approach to reaching young people through music, working with some local artists and well as national artists to get his health message out.

Very active in his community, he also works at the prisons, and has provided physicals for high school athletes. He was very well received, and the guys hung around to get more information.
I highly recommend him to come to your school, church, or civic group. He's excellent!
