Unpacked: Who Raised You?

Our podcast about our other podcast.

A lot gets said on Uncomfortable Conversations (subscribe & see for yourself!), so we'll be unpacking each episode with a guest. We'll go over the choice of theme, the best parts of the conversation between our guest and host and the lessons we hope to take from them.

My co-host today is also my oldest friend, Mita. Together we speak on the importance of men not learning our lessons through the pain of black women and how wonderful it is to see black men talking therapy. Here's Episode 3: Who Raised You unpacked.

Host: Folarin

YAWA! Production.

About the Podcast

Uncomfortable Conversations
About getting us -black men - to sit up and pay attention to the black women around us. How do we know they are loved? Safe? Cared for? Wait...how might we be the problem? Or better yet, how can we work towards a solution.
Through a series of uncomfortable conversations, our host and select black men will have honest discussions about how we can and have been complicit in harming the black women in our lives, and what we NEED to do to change that.
