A Vulnerable and Truth-Speaking Man


There's a recent CNN interview of President Obama with Anderson Cooper titled Obama reflects on Becoming a Man. I love how President Obama shows up. You'll hear him being vulnerable and speaking his truth about his life as an adolescent. In a circle of men and boys, he discusses the positive difference a supportive circle of good men and his peers could have made in his life as a young man.

"I understood what it meant
to not have a father in the house."

This interview with Anderson Cooper made me proud of him all over again.

WARNING: The second segment
of this video clip is about politics!

If you can, please forget about politics for a moment, and just listen to what President Obama has to say about and to men and young men sitting in a circle with him.

Here's the link to the CNN interview.
