A brief discussion on how tempting it is to want to move to Africa, simply because life is significantly harder in America. I discuss the post, emotions tied to having to parent while black and the reality of actually deciding to move. This is an important topic but one that also acts as a trigger and reminder that our daily lives are sometimes affected by the prejudices and racism of others.

There is something fishy about saying you have had the single parent experience after temporarily being without your partner. Why do so many people make reference to being a single mom on social media after their husband has been away for a business trip. It rubs me the wrong way when I see or hear something like that because it feels like it is diminishing power from an actual single parent to define their experience themselves. Am I too far off beat with this one? I would love to hear your comments about this so I can continue this into part 2 of the discussion. 

Diving into the underlying racism of mom groups and how it becomes unsafe and triggering for POC (especially Non-Model Minorities)

This episode focuses on balancing the need to care for myself and living a laid back lifestyle with being a parent and answering to the needs of others. This episode explores some layers of racism and how it adds to parenting making it very difficult to focus on self care.

In this episode I explore some deep consequences for black mothers navigating medical racism. I also explore how non black mothers can make connections which could lead to parents of any background coming together with a clear heart and open ears so we can establish solidarity.

The very first episode of White World Black Mom!
