Weekly Gatherings

Every Tuesday.
No Exceptions.

Our bi-weekly Tuesday sessions are the heartbeat of Undugu — two distinct formats, one continuous brotherhood.

1st & 3rd Tuesday of the Month

"Chop-It-Up"

A confidential, in-person safe space for emotional dialogue. Men gather to speak honestly about what they're carrying — relationships, mental health, grief, purpose, and the lived experience of being Black and Brown in America.

A structured public-speaking development session focused on emotional literacy through the power of voice. Men prepare and deliver real speeches, receive constructive feedback, and grow into communicators who can articulate their truth with clarity and confidence.

What Our Brothers Say

"

Walking into Undugu was the first time I'd been in a room full of Black men where we were actually allowed to be human — to be vulnerable without it being seen as weakness. That changed everything for me.

"

Undugu Speaks gave me language I didn't know I had. Learning to articulate what I feel — in front of my brothers — made me a better father, a better man. I didn't expect a speaking class to heal me. But it did.

"

These brothers hold me accountable in a way I've never experienced. Not with judgment — with love. Real love. The kind that says, 'We see you, and we need you to show up for yourself.'
