The Marvyn Harrison Podcast: Culture, Identity & Fatherhood

Can we talk about the late legend that was Kobe Bryant without talking about his alleged sexual misconduct case? Why are we only having these conversations after his passing? The bigger question is how do we reflect on celebrities with troubled pasts after their death? Marvyn takes us through his thoughts on this difficult topic with a contribution from journalist Reya El-Salahi.

Dope Black Dads is place where we are changing the narrative and having progressive conversations about black fathers, as well as creating a safe digital space for the community.  Your host is Marvyn Harrison.

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.

With porn being so easily accessible to our kids we need to make sure we're having open and honest conversations with our children about sex, consent and contraception and making sure that both girls and boys understand the importance of this. This we we welcome Darwood Grace, Mod Russel, Gavin Johnson and Stephen Ismail Thomas onto the podcast. Together they reflect on their own personal experiences growing up and how they developed their own attitudes towards sex and how they've used their experiences to educate their own children.

It's inevitable that your child will go through a phase in their teens where they will want to rebel. Whether that be the type of people they hang out with, getting their first taste of alcohol and maybe even experimenting with drugs. As this phase is inevitable it's important that as parents we respond to this instead of react and the Dads today discuss how they have dealt with these difficult times with their own teens. This week we welcome onto the podcast: Darwoood Grace, Kwame Kwaten and Gavin Johnson and Stephen Ismail Thomas.
