Daysha is taking a slight departure from regularly scheduled programming to discuss the currently developing tragic story of Nolan Wells, the Black Mississippi teen who mysteriously died during an outing with “friends.” She examines what his story as well as the heartbreaking story of Shanquella Robinson reveals about the intricacies of race, friendship and discernment and discusses how we can and should always be thoughtful about the friendships we keep.
In this week’s episode, Daysha specifically:
Discusses the underlying tension that exists within White and Black friendships
Explores how advice her mom gave her on race and friendship in her youth kept her from rooting out some problematic friendships
And makes the case for why a strong sense discernment is a crucial part of the friendship making process
So, I hope you are sat and ready because Real Talk Friend Therapy with Daysha Veronica is in session!
