YM NOT YN

What identifies you? Far too many young Black men are being labeled as “YN”—a term often associated with negativity, poor choices, crime, and limited expectations. But tonight, Paul D. Jones challenges that identity and introduces a new one: YM — Young Man. A Young Man carries himself with purpose, discipline, respect, and vision. A Young Man understands that his current circumstances do not determine his future. A Young Man chooses growth over excuses, wisdom over ignorance, and leadership over following the crowd. In this powerful episode, Paul D. Jones breaks down the mindset, habits, and principles that help young men rise above stereotypes, overcome adversity, and become the best version of themselves. The question is simple: Will you allow others to define you as a YN? Or will you choose to become a YM? Your future begins with your identity.
