S3E6: Radical Mothering. In conversation with Bonnita

In this episode we chat with artist and mother Bonnita. With many ‘so -called’ labels, Bonnita openly and honestly recounts her experiences as a mother of  bi-racial and neuro-diverse children and mother with neurodiversity herself. We move through a plethora of topics ranging from un-schooling, racism, art and the need for women to have ‘a room of one's own’. This conversation is sure to get you pondering…
