We know it’s all about mommying here at Mamaste, but using 2023 as a fresh start, I decided it might just be time to shake things up a little bit with a new perspective…
Today, I’m welcoming our very first dad guest. Shaka Senghor is an author, a lecturer, an incredibly dope thought leader, and a father. Shaka’s story begins in a dark place, but through unbelievable resilience and perseverance, he’s created an amazing source of light.
Tune in and listen to episode 61 of Mamaste with Tanika Ray. Shaka and I are talking about why he hates labels, the profoundly complicated narrative around Black fatherhood, and how toxicity in the home involves both parents. We’re having a crazy-deep conversation and we don’t always agree—but you’re definitely going to want to tune in for this one!
