  • 21. Giving Up Religion For Lent?

    As Lent arrives the Dope Black Mums talk about whether to raise their children in religion or not.

    Should you instil religious beliefs in your children? How do you raise children with a partner who has a different faith to you? And if you are not raising a child in a religious home, what are you choosing instead? Big questions indeed! In this divine episode the Dope Black Mums ‘go in’ as they discuss their very varied experiences with religion, belief and spirituality.

    This is a dope conversation well worth having - and that’s one belief we all share.
