For Parents of Young Boys of Color
Raising Kings
Starts at Home
The complete parenting academy for Black and Brown parents raising confident, resilient sons.
The Transformation
What Your Son Will Become
Three transformations that happen when a boy of color is raised with intention, love, and the right framework.
Emotionally Intelligent
He learns to identify, express, and manage his emotions giving him an advantage in every relationship and every room he enters.
Culturally Grounded
He knows where he comes from, takes pride in who he is, and carries that identity as armor not a burden.
Resilient Under Pressure
He develops the mental strength to face adversity, discrimination, and setbacks without losing himself or his direction.
Parent Stories
What Parents Are Saying
Real results from real families -- parents who chose to raise their sons with intention.
This academy finally speaks directly to what I face raising my son as a Black mother in America. Nothing else comes close.
Keisha M.
Mother of a 12-year-old
Module 5 alone changed how I talk to my son about failure. He is a completely different kid at school since we started this work together.
Marcus T.
Father of two boys
Deleon doesn't just give you theory -- he gives you scripts you can use today. The balance of gentle parenting and tough love is exactly what I needed.
Diane W.
Mother of three
I've tried other parenting courses but they weren't built for us. Nurturing Kings Academy sees my son fully -- his culture, his potential, his future.
Tanya R.
Mother of a 9-year-old
As a single dad, I felt lost. This program gave me a clear roadmap and the confidence to show up for my son in ways I never knew how to before.
Jerome B.
Single father of a 14-year-old

Author · Educator · Founder, Boys N Action
I grew up in a single-parent household -- raised by a mother who worked tirelessly to give her two sons every opportunity. I know what it means to navigate the world without a roadmap, to figure out your identity in spaces that weren't built for you.
I became the first in my family to earn a college degree, served as Student Body President at George Mason University, and went on to found Boys N Action -- a mentorship program that has impacted over 1,000 young boys of color over the past decade.
I wrote Nurturing Boys of Color because every parent raising a son like mine deserves the tools I had to find the hard way. The Nurturing Kings Academy is those tools -- organized, actionable, and built from real experience.
