In this episode, we invite miss King, a young Director from Compton, California to discuss the flaws of the foster care system. King shares her personal experience growing up as a "ward of the state" as she bluntly puts it-and the harsh reality her family had to endure. We highlight the disparities between Single parents of color as opposed to White families and the unfortunate generational trauma that many families like Miss King's are dealing with.
