The world had free shots at the Smith family, from Willow and her hair to Jada and hers. Everything in between. Here I share a conversation I had with one of the first students to be employed with Hood Heroes, as it relates to this current event. Forgive me for the beeping you hear in the back occasionally. I’ll change that battery before the next recording. Listen in, share. All feedback is welcome.

A Black Boy and A Gun
Here I can share a situation that took place. I believe it to be one that resonates with many educators, parents, family members, and neighbors in the Hood.

Any and all feedback is welcome. Follow the Hood Heroes podcast for more.
