On this episode of the Black on Black Education, we met with Maryland Councilman Will Jawando to discuss the reality of Black Fatherhood and the importance of their role with young people especially Black young male development. Black fatherhood has a powerful impact on the community and families that we often don't talk about enough in everyday conversation. The presence of fathers within the family has mostly been attached with positive social, economic, psychological and educational results among children. We discussed the role of Black fathers in the family and how their presence is instrumental they are in the Black community. Throughout our conversation, we deconstructed many of the stereotypes associated with Black fatherhood, discussed the need for male role models for sons and daughters, the circumstances leading to the absence of Black father or male role models in our community the value of Black mentorship, the need for educational change for ;lack students from a political and policy level and so much more. This episode is a must watch that you don't want to miss.
