Together We Rise: A Manifesto for Black Love, Power, and Unity 05/06/2025

What if love wasn’t just a feeling, but a movement?
What if every Black relationship was a radical act of resistance, a blueprint for power, and a legacy in motion?

Together We Rise is more than a relationship book—it’s a cultural revolution wrapped in personal stories, wisdom from the ancestors, and hard-earned insight from the frontlines of Black love. From self-discovery to community-building, from emotional healing to economic power, this is the blueprint for Black couples ready to rewrite the narrative, build wealth, raise kings and queens, and love each other out loud.

In this unapologetic and poetic manifesto, artist and visionary Don Faro—founder of Lyrical Trap Music and author of Future Black History—takes readers on a powerful journey through the six foundations of becoming a Black power couple. Blending deeply personal storytelling with social commentary, historical context, and laugh-out-loud moments, this book speaks to the soul of every Black man and woman who’s tired of surviving and ready to build, heal, and rise.

You’ll discover:

• Why loving yourself is the most revolutionary act

• How to move from a victim mindset to a victory mission

• Where to find your person in a world full of distractions

• The real meaning of “power couple” (and how to become one)

• How to build thriving communities and cities rooted in Black love

• How relationships can fight back against systemic oppression, including policies like Project 2025

This book is for:

• Black singles ready to date with purpose

• Black couples craving depth, growth, and legacy

• Anyone committed to the future of Black families and Black freedom
