"A father figure is not a father." Leonard Pitts, syndicated columnist wrote emphasizing the important unique a father brings to his children. Similarly, understanding the uniqueness of being a father of color is the underpinning of such a section on the Fatherville website, and we hope that fathers of color will share their writings on the unique situation they might have, while at the same time, similarly bond around Mr. Pitts' words. Nothing can replace a father in the life of his children.
