May’s Kingmaker Conversation was special. 👑

We talked about pride — what it protects us from and what it can cost us. We laughed, ate, reflected, and experienced real brotherhood.

This conversation also served as a soft launch of The Kingmaker Institute, our new space designed for the development of Black boys and men.

I’m proud of you kings. Thank you for showing up and helping build something meaningful. This is just the beginning.

Black man… you’d be crazy not to pull up. Brotherhood, real conversation, good food, and a space to take off the mask.

Be there.

We are proud of you, Black man. 👑

You showed up to April’s Kingmaker Conversation and brought life into the room — joy, honesty, laughter, real experiences, and true brotherhood. That matters.

This is what it looks like when we come together! A space to take off the mask, be seen, be heard, and just be.

We’re building something real — and it’s only growing. And yes… the food was great too.

If you see a brother you know, tag him.
Share this. Follow us.

If you weren’t in the room this time… we’ll see you next time.

Kingmaker Conversations are back this MARCH!!! 👑

This is a space for Black men and boys to come together — to eat, laugh, talk honestly, and experience real brotherhood. A space where you don’t have to perform. Where you can take off the mask and just be.

Our next conversation, Between the Fro and the Braids, explores how we carry stress and navigate conflict — and what it means to face it together.

Last year, we had many great gatherings, and we are expecting even better connections! Please spread the word and help us increase our reach!
