What is RUMBLE YOUNG MAN, RUMBLE?
Since 2010, the Campaign for Black Male Achievement has engaged the Muhammad Ali Center in Louisville, KY as a gathering place for the annual Rumble Young Man, Rumble! convening (RYMR). This annual event has since evolved into the preeminent gathering of cross-sector Black Male Achievement leaders working to improve life outcomes of Black men and boys across intersecting areas including education, criminal justice, mentoring, responsible fatherhood, narrative change and capacity-building. RYMR is a space where BMA leaders gather to hone their leadership skills, promote healing, and learn from experts how to improve life outcomes for America’s Black men and boys.RYMR is inspired by the life and legacy of Muhammad Ali, the hero, champion and humanitarian. While no man is perfect, Ali’s life and legacy provides CBMA with a perfect palette from which to conceptualize and implement Rumbles. Each year, CBMA exclusively invites and convenes only 125 “Rumblers”. This small number allows for an effective learning and networking, and ensures that Rumblers receive maximum benefit from the gathering.

Eagle Academy Students Recite 'Invictus' In one of the Democratic national convention's Most Powerful Moments
Story by Karen Fratti - Tuesday night's Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia was just about to get a bit boring, until the Eagle Academy students recited "Invictus"and brought everyone back to life. The Eagle Academy is a consortium of all-male secondary schools that started in the Bronx, in New York City, and has five locations in the city and across the river, in Newark, New Jersey. Every day, they recite "Invictus," a poem by William Ernest Henley, that was also made famous by Nelson Mandela. Read More
