After listening to a recent podcast featuring a segment on best pop culture moms and hearing no moms of color from the last 50 years getting any love from contributors, Mimi and ABM found themselves irritated! Seriously, how could anyone forget Claire Huxtable? Florida Evans? Aunt Viv??? Or even Winona Woods, who adopted Penny on Good Times???
There are numerous Black and Brown women swirling around pop culture who also serve as mom archetypes that all women can look to as role models. So, on the next episode of Add Water and Stir, ABM and Mimi will chat about their favorite Black and Brown pop culture moms and give voice to those of us who recognize the value of and contributions women of color make in the fine art of mothering. Be sure to leave a comment below or tweet the ladies (@adoptiveblkmom and @mimicomplex) with your favorite Black and Brown pop culture moms. ABM and Mimi will include your moms on the podcast!
On the Wine Down, the ladies will chat about the Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion finale and the hot mess that is Love and Hip Hop Atlanta.
Join the ladies live on Thursday, May 14 at 10pm EDT/9pm CDT on Google+! Or catch the show later on Itunes, Stitcher or YouTube!
