This episode is near and dear to my heart. I am the mother of an African-American male. The African-American male is the most endangered species in America. Langston Hughes wrote I, to sing America in 1926 and it still rings true today in 2020. In this episode, I reached out to other mothers raising sons in today’s society. We share our fears, our hopes and the advice we impart on our sons. It is our prayer they will never be a hashtag or a statistic. #itoosingamerica #raisingoursons #theblackmale #realconversation #thejusticesystem #oursons
