The Critical Role Of Black Mothers -- And How To Support All Moms : Anna Malaika Tubbs : Ted

Throughout US history, the stories of influential Black mothers have been purposefully obscured - at a high cost to all. Sociologist Anna Malaika Tubbs unmasks the lies and designs behind this strategic erasure and highlights the scientific, cultural and historical contributions of Black mothers. Listen in as she details how we can change the narrative to move forward. (This conversation, hosted by TED current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers, was part of an exclusive TED Membership event. Visit ted.com/membership to become a TED Member.)
