Welcome back to The Parallel Paths Podcast!
Last week we discussed the lack of self-love within the “black” community. This week your podcast co-host went even deeper to uncover the truth about “black-on-black” violence within the community. Makeda and Blair discuss the origins of this issue, methods in which this violence is carried out, and the consequences of this violence. Of course, your co-hosts don’t just leave you with the problems, so stayed tuned through the entire episode to catch some proposed solutions to combating this issue. We hope this episode provides a foundation to continue to expand on the topic of “black-on-black” violence, while we also recognize there are many other dimensions of this issue still to be discussed. We would love to hear your thoughts so please leave a comment or email directly at theparallelpathspodcast@gmail.com to share your thoughts.
