Show Notes

In this episode, I speak to four fathers who represent a large section of the lifespan and with varying but intersecting experiences that influence their fatherhood commitment. One father talks about being raised by a single dad, another talks about his life first as a stepfather and then a biological father, yet another talks about incarceration during the early years of his daughter's life, and another reflects on how his young fatherhood changed his life - each reflects on how these experiences inform their commitment to their children and family.

Black fathers are involved. Black fathers are present. Black fatherhood is not the automatic negative stereotypes that have been perpetuated.
