You read that right over 300,000 black people go missing every single year! Now ask yourself, how many do you hear about?

Our guest today knows this story all too well as she was stolen from her birth family around the age of one, and although she knew something was wrong as she grew up, she did not learn her truth or her real name until after her 50th birthday.

This is a critically important episode that talks about the details and statistics around black and missing children in this country. This one should be mandatory listening and mandatory sharing.

WELCOME BACK WELCOME BACK - We are back and kicking off a new season. Please believe we have some super amazing work hitting you this season and we could not be more excited.

But before we dive into the new While Black Content, we wanted to share a special episode from Shanti Das. Shanti blessed us her presence at the end of last season and she went deep on her own experience with mental illness as well as why she devoted so much of her time and energy to the space.

She was gracious enough to allow While Black to share an episode of her MIBO show with the good brother C Tha GOD as they chat about mental illness and personal experiences.

Make sure you go and listen to the MIBO show wherever you listen to podcasts
