    The Things We Learn From Black Men

    The Things We Learn From Black Men

    In this episode Andre's back on the pod for an open and honest conversation between Black men and Black women about our relationships, where we struggle to be seen by each other and where we could be doing more for each other. 
    We discuss how online discourse between genders has become vitriolic and what we could be doing to step outside of that contention to have more meaningful and progressive conversations.
