This Mother’s Day weekend, we are joined by local author and mom Anna Malaika Tubbs. Her new book, “The Three Mothers,” shines a light on the difficult and often overlooked work of Black mothers, and explores the lives of the women who birthed and raised Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X and James Baldwin.

She and host Alex Cohen also talk about the best gifts one can give to mothers everywhere. Hint: It’s NOT flowers or chocolate!
