S01E05: Bridging Worlds: Raising African kids in America

from Africa Straight Talk

In many African cultures, children are a blessing and they are raised as part of a community - a village.  But what happens when African parents are navigating this journey far from home, and in a culture very different from their own?In this episode we speak to one parent who brought up her child in America. She shares the challenges, joys and yes, even the moments every African parent faces of sending their kids on a one way ticket back to Africa! Look out for next month's show where we flip the mic and hear what the kids have to say. They have thoughts...a lot of them!
