Civil Conversations with Matt Aghedo

When you are a white woman in the south raising a black son or a black woman raising four boys, what could possibly go through your heads?

I sat down with Marty Overman and Kierra Henderson to talk about their perspectives as mothers raising blacks sons in today's time. 

We continue our conversation with Sgt. Clyde Boatwright. This goes even deeper and topics become more intensified. 

I invited Sgt. Clyde Boatwright, VP of the Fraternal order of Police for the state of Maryland. We went back and forth on various topics regarding policing. I left with a lot more insight and feeling very thankful for this conversation. I hope you all will enjoy this as much as I did. 

I sat down with Jason Fredericks, social media influencer and business manager. He manages people such as Kevonstage and various other social media stars. 

I asked him to come on to help discuss how he is doing and how is social media truly going to impact social justice as it stands today. Very good to hear his perspectives

I had a great conversation with Mike & Debi Adam and Spencer & Karen Foster. Both couples were very open and honest about aspect of their relationships that I believe was very insightful. Come with me as we dive into these interracial marriages.

We continue our conversation with Mrs. Roots and Steve Weiss!!!

In this very special episode, I sat down with Mrs. Roots, an 86 year old African American from West Virginia and Steve Weiss, a 68 Year Old from New York City. We discussed what their life was like growing up and living through a time where segregation and the civil rights movement was definitely a highlight of their days. 

Listen in and learn from the past in the present

"White Privilege" its a pretty captivating statement and term. Some believe that its real and some don't.  Jason Parrott and I talk about the nuances surrounding this term and where it may and may not be applicable. 

Young adults will always have a different view. They have more energy, they're newer to "grown decisions" and they can be a lot more upfront in todays time. I invited Micaela Parson a young black woman living in Philadelphia and Josiah Goodrum, a young white married man living in Charlotte. 

Lets take time to listen to these amazing young adults.
