Whether the issue is cardio-vascular disease, cancer, diabetes or morbidity associated violence, African-American men are at the top of the "BAD" lists for health-status. The vehicle for developing focus on African-American health or African-American health issues is the annual "Brothers" Health Issues Conference. These conferences focus on health issues that are pervasive in African-American men and their communities!</font></p> </font> <p ALIGN="center"><strong><font color="#000080" size="5" face="Arial">August 2000 Update: Fraternity Chooses Emory's 1998 Prostate Conference as National Health Initiative: </font><font color="#800040" size="5" face="Arial"> </font></strong></p> <p ALIGN="left"><strong><font face="Arial" size="3">Howard L.
