Issues Mothers of Color Face

Motherhood On Tap

Comedy


When we started Motherhood On Tap, we wanted to share our own struggles with parenting, but also understand other mothers out there and what they are facing and how we as a whole, as mothers, can help each other through these struggles. So we decided we would discuss issues that mothers of color face still in today's society. We hope this episode demonstrates how we stand in solidarity with people of color and the BLM movement.
