Marriage and Caste in America Kay Hymowitz These days marriage is not just a personal issue; it's separating America's haves and the have-nots. And it threatens to do so far into the future. A lot of people think this is because the less fortunate don't have the money to get married. Not true. Marriage is probably the most important way to ensure economic security and even success - for you and your children. Black Marriage Day Nisa Muhammad Black Marriage Day spearheaded and anchors the growing national movement that invites the Black Community to reconsider marriage. It brings a wealth of marriage strengthening resources to the people – to those most in need and, yet, who have had the least access. More and more community and faith organizations, grass roots activists, and lay educators are joining the ranks, determined to make a difference. Learn how you and your community can get on board.

Plus, in addition to increased confidence that they know why and how to get and stay married, the marriage ed programs give side benefits including reduced verbal and physical aggression, improved communication with teachers, peers, parents and future employers. Bringing programs to your community is no longer an option, it's, as the kids would say, a "no brainer". Learn how easy it is!
