The program is seven-stage “rites of passage” process designed to redirect the negative influences and energies developed as a result of living within the accepted culture of our community toward the developement of the next great “Black” men of tomorrow.Falami (Respect and Honor Me) was developed the following year in 1987 by the female members of the Kansas City Black United Front. We use personal family experiences, traditional African practices and wisdom from the elders to build a curriculum wherein the final product is a youth program for girls that develop character, skills, positive values and a commitment to the progress of Black people." } ] } ] ```
