*TRIGGER WARNING - Racial tensions, slurs, murder is discussed in this episode*

As the Ahmaud Arberry story broke on social media around America - it resonated with me, that in 2020 we are still having to have conversations with our sons, brothers, husbands, fathers, etc about how to stay safe and what to do when encountering entitled angry racist people and steps to take to possibly save their lives. It dawned on me with Ahmaud's story particularly that there is no way to make sure you are not killed by the hands of a racist white police officer or an angry entitled white man. In part one of this segment. we listen to doula, childbirth educator and tax slayer Tequila Grant decipher how she plans to teach her sons the difficulties they may face just due to skin color. We touch on gentrification, racism in the birthing world and in hospitals that lead to the disproportionate deaths of POC.
