Black Single Motherhood - a subject long discussed and is still part of news today. Black single mothers are often accused of rasing future criminals, pisioners, and burdens of society. One woman. Dr. Rabi'a Hakima dared to write and publish a rebutal that is worthy of being a special guest of Black Motherhood Empowerment:

Rabi'a Hakima argues that despite Don Lemon's comments, women raising children alone have value and aren't the root cause of high rates of incarceration or poverty within the black community. She also says that Lemon's comments perpetuate Eurocentric racism and come from a place of male privilege.

Please join host Denise Bolds author of "Raising Princes to be Kings: A Single Black Mother's Guide to Raising Her Black Son" and Dr. Hakima as we discuss her empowering article.

Get Ready to be empowered!
