Black Fatherhood w/ Authour & Filmmaker, Dr. Khalid

Today we are talking about the importance of Black fathers. June is the month we are celebrating the amazing men in our lives, community, and overall contribution to the culture. The media often depicts Black fathers as deadbeats and many other negative stereotypes, however, we have the power to control the negative by shining the light on all the amazing dads out there holding it down and changing the narrative. We continue to UPLIFT, SUPPORT, HONOR, and show LOVE to our Black men and fathers!
