We’re looking for the men whose innovations, influence, outreach, and action gave us faith in humanity in 2010.
Men whose selflessness and integrity set them apart.
Men who made a difference in their families, their communities, their country, and the world.
We want you involved in creating this list. It’s your world too.
Email us at goodmenfeatures@gmail.com. Or write your picks in the comments—and let us know why you chose them. (“Controversial” picks are welcome, as long as you can back ’em up.)
About Cooper Fleishman
I would like to submit Mark Douglas, CEO/Executive Director of My Brothaz House, a place in Savannah, GA, whose mission is to help reduce the number of HIV infections among men (women are also welcome to come in for testing) through education and support in primarily black communities and those of color–though you need not be a minority to visit or be tested. You can find a link to his site on my blog posting about their recent 10th Anniversary celebration, which includes video interviews of Douglas: http://blog.bourgeoisdork.com/2010/06/men-making-difference-my-brothaz-home.html
I’d like to nominate New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. After sending the corrupt Jon Corzine into ignominious retirement, Christie is getting tough with the insatiable and unfair public employee unions that are bankrupting his state.
Like Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown and others, Christie proved to be a harbinger of the President Obama-described “shellacking” the Democrats took in the recent midterm.
Without courageous elected officials like Christie holding the line, we are headed for unsustainable spending, and a Euro-socialist economy, at best.
