A space for African men in the Netherlands to come together and freely discuss issues that matter to them.

An open sharing session where we discuss "limiting beliefs" that are inbuilt in our mindset. Looking back at our younger selves, what did we think or say that limited us in growing or being better today. What would we do better if we had the chance to rewind? How do these beliefs affect our view of society now and how do we stop our kids from inheriting them?
