Confession 10: "The One Where The Father Doesn't Want To Run Away From Parental Responsibility."

“I will never be annoyed by her pain...and when she’s 40, I am still Dad. Period.” These are the words of our next guest Phareke Frazer - a single, black father holding on to four years worth of birthday presents because of a prejudicial family court decision. He has not been in the same room with his daughter for over 1,400 days. But in that time, he’s taken it upon himself to fight a judicial system that was designed to persecute black men - and he is doing it from a place of love, not only for his daughter but for himself. It’s amazing that he has still managed to cultivate self-love given all the pain that  he has had to carry. His story is one that paints a picture of injustice that you will never forget. But there’s also a lot of healing in his words when he talks about forgiveness, and when he declares that he wants his daughter to be unapologetic about her blackness. Tune in, and please don’t forget to pass on the lessons to your tribe.
