2 Black Moms & A Mic
From diapers to degrees, these two black moms have seen it all and heard it all. Now they are bringing their insights on issues that matter to you. They will explore the range of issues on the minds of black moms everywhere, including helping your high school student navigate the college admissions process, resources tailored to the educational achievement of black children, battling the continuing problem of educational disparities, letting go and letting your child live their best life (and not re-live yours), and we will go introspective to explore what it means to find personal joy, health and happiness on the other side of motherhood!

Let's Talk "Black Was The Ink" and the Reconstruction Era with Michelle Coles and Schuyler Rainey Twyman (S.2, Ep. 5)
Join us as we talk to Michelle Coles, author of the award-winning young adult novel "Black Was The Ink", a powerful coming-of-age story and an eye-opening exploration of the Reconstruction Era, the period time between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of Jim Crow. Through her main character Malcolm, Michelle brings to life historical leaders of Reconstruction, including the country's first black Congressman, Joseph Rainey of South Carolina. Joining us with Michelle is Cong. Rainey's great-great-granddaughter, Schuyler Rainey Twyman. Schuyler shares her insights about her great-great-grandfather, and together we talk about the dynamic period of Reconstruction and the importance of our children knowing their history. You don't want to miss this powerful and enlightening talk.
