Herbert Addison Burns Speaking Topics

  • Manhood Building: Manhood Presentations for Colleges, High Schools, Community Organizations and Social Service Agencies

    Mr. Burns' speaking topic focuses on helping young men to establish manhood. This past proven method comes in two parts. The first part is designed to immediately grab a short attention span and have a shock value. It involves personal interaction with the audience. The purpose is to stir up and express the audience's lower emotions. With this proven technique, Mr. Burns has captured the young men's attention and they can then relate and become part of the presentation. The second part covers these three areas:

    • Clearly identifying manhood through biblical definition and real life experiences.
    • Identifying destructive emotions which will impair the manhood development process.
    • Methods to control destructive emotions.

    In Herbert Addison Burns' Manhood Building presentation, the objective and the outcome is for young men to make a commitment to strife to reach a mental state of maturity

  • Unsung Black Civil Rights Activists and Social Reformers

    Mr. Burns focuses on Black civil rights activists who are unknown to most high school and middle school students. Special attention is placed on Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association and Booker T Washington. The contributions of these two titans in Black history is crucial for students continuing courses in Advance Placement Black Studies and African American Courses in college. The reason being, Marcus Garvey's organization was bigger than the civil rights movement. Twentieth century social reformers including Malcolm X who advocated black economic empowerment were adopted by Marcus Garvey and Booker T Washington. Past events are linked to current events to give students a point of reference.
