Welcome to the first episode of the New Year. We decided to bring on two guests Abel Lucas and Bill Williams, two Liberian-born brothers. Able and Bill talked to us about their experiences growing up in Liberian, their separate adoptive families, and their transition to American life. We also discussed what our some of the similarities and differences they have seen between Black Americans and African Americans.
