Here a little discussion about 3 episodes "Behind Family Lines", "I had a Dream", and "Culture Shock." Each episode diving into something relevant to all our lives. The different types of family dynamics within black culture, Islamophobia following the attacks on 9/11 and how we can convey the message of unity to young children, and teaching kids about racism and black struggles.
