Description

Greg Geffrard lost his Haitian mother when he was only 16. She died from AIDS, but that is only a part of her story.

This is an episode about a black son seeing his mother’s infectious “joy” and wanting to protect it. It’s about what it is like to watch the women in your life being mistreated and hurt by the men who were supposed to be your role models. It’s about revisionist history towards our parents, and the many faces of our mothers. It’s about the advice we give young people when dealing with grief and learning to ask the right questions.

Thanks for being here! This show isn’t just about our moms, it’s about us. Sign up for all the latest news around this podcast, and see behind the scenes content on our website.
