In episode 5, I share a difficult motherhood moment from my sons second grade year where he experienced being considered a threat. I share the connotations the word threat carries for black boys and men and how that shaped my conversation with the leadership at his school. It’s a very difficult story to share but one that I feel is relevant to the work we’re doing as black mothers; using our voices and our activism to protect our children and reflect to them the importance of standing up for the right thing in all spaces.
