Over the decades, more and more US children are being raised by their grandparents. Dr. LaShawnDa Pittman, author of the new book, “Grandmothering While Black: A Twenty-First-Century Story of Love, Coercion, and Survival”, joins us to talk about how the interweaving of love, obligation, bureaucracy, historical factors, race, gender, and economic inequality particularly shape Black Grandmothers' role in the family—and how the subsequent effects are passed on to their children.
