Back on In February 10th 2014, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the beautiful actress Vanessa Bell Calloway who was gracious enough to lend her opinions to my first Film ‘A Fatherless America’. Everyone knows this is my first attempt at making a film and it is truly where my heart lies.
This project is something I want the world to see and just think.
When I sat down with Vanessa, she quickly got into the importantance of fathers in the lives of their kids and here is what she said.
Now, some LOGO actually said that I have no footage of my film so what I decided to do was release this piece of footage that will not make the project just like several other dozens of hours of footage will not because I am learning the proces as we go along but If you would like to help contribute to the project and stay abreast on what is going on, please visit A FATHERLESS AMERICA.com !
Vanessa and I talked for about 4 hours that day and I have some very good footage, I want to get more for the movie because her insight on the role of fathers in the home was terrific. Since I will not be able to use a lot of the footage, I will slowly be releasing it to you guys so you can see my early work as well as in the behind the scenes footage!
For a man that hates black women (LOL) its funny to see the calibur of black women that support me and my cause. Notice that there are no women like this who follow them or comment to them or anything? This project is my baby and when its born to life it will be a game changer!
I am posting this because you know how I am, I like to prove a$$holes wrong. People have been talking all types of crap and a fan of mine was in my Suite today asking me that If I really had footage of me talking to Vanessa Bell Calloway then why havent I put some out to prove The Logo wrong? I was at first offended, then I looked through my computer and could find no footage so I was like hell I am a fraud! lol
But then I finally found the raw footage so, lets see if posting it will make any of them say, oh ok maybe he has done something? Again, If they dont, then you will see that they are just f*cking with me to be f*cking with me!
Thank you all for your support on this very important film!

Well then you better donate more money. And even then, you still will be waiting.
Great interview Tommy.
A Queen upon her throne praising her King. Black women I will do anything for you. Mrs. Calloway can I mow your lawn, wash your car, build you a deck…
No Tommy you can’t shoot a movie like this its not “BUILDING” we can see you. You have to do as the logo does thats the right way I THINK! jk…lol
Jason Black can come up to you and tell you that 1 + 1 = 2. But because you cannot SEE HIM… you will not believe him.
The Fraud can come up to you, and tell you: “Nope. Don’t listen to The Logo. 1 + 1 does not = 2; 1 + 1 = 11. Because if you take ‘1’ and add it right next to the other ‘1’… you get ’11′”.
But because you can see Tommy’s face… you’ll believe him. That’s called being a fool.
WOW TOMMY! I’m impressed! $40,000+ LATER and more than a year LATER… THIS IS ALL THAT YOU HAVE! ONE FREAKING INTERVIEW!
Imagine if people gave an additional $40,000 AND another year… or even $80,000 and additional TWO years, what you will accomplish with “FATHERLESS AMERICA”! YOU CAN DO IT TOMMY BOY!
COME ON EVERYBODY! REACH DOWN AND DIG DOWN DEEP AND YOUR POCKETS!!! And be fools once more.
You’re still a fraud. You’re still THE FRAUD. This proves not a thing.
For the life of me I cant understand why a man would come to another mans website and try to discourage people from donating to a positive and uplifting project. This mentality is why some slaves would never try to escape, but discourage others from trying as well.
I think emphasizing fatherhood is super important, but I’m not digging the whole “God made us for specific roles” nonsense. Magical thinking helps no one, and the Western world is not going to revert back to where people inherit roles based on their sex. That genie is out of the bottle, and the world is not going to go back to the way it was in the past (nor do I think it should, honestly).
I think a better approach would be to push for children to have positive influences from both genders in their lives — people that demonstrate the characteristics that we want our children to have as adults. That doesn’t mean that the father should necessarily be the provider and the mother should be the nurturer, but that children should have a good enough idea in their head about what makes a good man or woman so that when they grow up they can be one (and hopefully marry one).
