This crucial curation was conceptualized by the passionate and multifaceted Rodney Freeman, a proud father, brother, son, librarian, author, self-proclaimed nerd, and hip-hop extraordinaire. Recognizing the overwhelmingly negative portrayal of Black men over the past few years, he began to wonder if he was seen in the same light as portrayed by the media. Becoming concerned that misrepresentation would also affect other Black men in his life, such as his father and brother, he decided to rewrite the script. Hence, the Black Male Archives was established.

At its core, Reminisce Preservation’s platform epitomizes the importance of representation. It highlights Black men around the globe in a positive, progressive light, ultimately affirming burgeoning young men that they are not limited to or by the status quo.
