In this episode, my guest Vuyisile Mshudulu gives what I refer to a as a lecture on a topic that quite frankly I feel we are avoiding as a black people of my generation in general. We unfortunately do not have such luxury because whether or not you have a son, the challenges that black boys and black young men are facing today, will if it does not already impact you directly or indirectly.

We are losing these boys and young men to drugs, alcohol, violence, crime, despair, unemployment, lethargy and depression. Yes. of cause it is not all of them, but enough to cause alarm - enough have these kinds of conversations regularly

In today's episode, Vuyisile takes us back to the root of it all. He covers amongst other things:

Slavery, Colonization, Imperialism, Patriarchy, black families and much more.

It is another extremely important conversation/lecture.
