Rad Dad mag is out!

You've been waiting for this last magazine issue of Rad Dad Magazine? Here it go, if you didnt cop one, support that. If you already got the message, think of a young father who don't know yet. We fathers have to converse, chop it up, share wisdom, and just relate so we can raise these babies right.

Little Black Books Give away-Young, Black, Nappy


Hey all, please check out YOUNG BLACK & NAPPY! I ran into these folks at the Oakland Indie Fest and was delighted to find out that they were a family of naturals (afros, locks, etc). We got to talking and realized Furqans First would be a great fit for a contest they are running to give away children's books featuring African American children. So please  go to their site and check them out. Even if you already got a copy coming through the kickstarter campaign, please check out the other books they'll be giving away.
