It’s time for Black men to take their health more seriously, and this new initiative is here to help! Kicking off Minority Health Awareness Month on April 1, Robert F. Smith joined forces with Steve Harvey, Chris Tucker, Cedric the Entertainer, and Charlamagne Tha God to launch the Mount Sinai Robert F. Smith Mobile Prostate Cancer Screening Bus. The overall goal of the new state-of-the-art technology-run bus is to help raise awareness around prostate cancer by providing an opportunity for testing for the disease that has significantly taken a toll on the Black community. “Perhaps the most concerning thing I’ve seen throughout my involvement with prostate cancer research efforts is the lack of knowledge within those communities hit hardest by this disease,” said Smith in an exclusive email interview with AfroTech. “Black men are 76% more likely to develop high-risk prostate cancer and twice as likely to die from it. And yet, until recently there was very little awareness about the...

As part of Harvey Ventures, Steve Harvey and his daughter Lori Harvey have invested in a variety of Black-owned businesses.

In a new interview with People Magazine, Steve spoke about Lori’s relationship with “Black Panther” heart-throb Michael B. Jordan, and needless to say, Steve’s baby girl couldn’t be happier. “I don’t speak publicly about this type of stuff, but I’m happy for my daughter right now. I really am,” he said. “It’s the first time I’ve been happy for her [in a relationship]. And it’s the first time she’s been happy.” If nothing else, the children of Steve Harvey have learned well from their father. After all, Steve is the author of the classic relationship tome, “Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man.” And while acting like a lady and thinking like a man can be applied in relationships, it can also be applied in business, as well — and the children of Steve Harvey have...
