Reboot of an interview my son Kennedy interviewing me about what's it like to be an African American man in the United States when he was 16 (he is 20 now). The conversation covered topics such as depression, what it was like being one of the only black lacrosse players throughout his father’s playing career in high school, college, and a member of a US national team. This is a deep and personal dive into Race, Masculinity, and Mental Health.
