I love to hear a man/father’s thoughts on fatherhood, It’s an inspiration..

I read some of the comments, there is no mention in the article about Boris being African-American. To me, it states, Essence celebrates Black Fathers.
Once again, thanks CBB for showing more celebrities babies, children, and tweens …

Sarah’s note: I changed the first sentence from African-American to black since someone posted the quote from Boris that made it clear he refers to himself as black, not AA.

Wow, Xzbit’s son is tall for 12. I love his comment that he “wants to send a stellar human being out into the world.” Something all parents should aspire to, I think.

He’s technically not African-American but since he’s a black man living in America with an African-American wife and African-American kids, I think he qualifies. The term is used because it’s more PC than “Black” I guess.

Great Magazine Article. It is always wonderful to see more celebrity babies.
Thanks for showing men and babies of color !!!

Tanya, I wasn’t trying to label him, I thought it was the article that did.

akentunde, I obviously know Ghana is in Africa, but as far as I know he’s not an American citizen.
Actually, I just googled this to make sure and stumbled across this interview:
“I’m saying black because African-American doesn’t fit with me because I’m not African American so I say black.”

I’ve read the magazine a month ago, but I still love re-reading what they all had to say about being fathers. And the photos that go along with it are gorgeous.

Ghana is in Africa Anna L. and he is an American citizen. Since he agreed to be in the pictorical article, maybe he considers himself African-American. Just a thought.

Great pictures, thanks so much for posting.

Thanks for letting us know about it!

Anna L, if that is what he feels he is, so be it. Stop trying to label others.

Anyway, what a great read.

Awwww..so sweet!!
