About this Event
In his classic song, Grandma's Hands, Bill Withers sang eloquently about the power and presence of his ‘Grandma’ who soothed, guided and intervened during key moments in his (and others’) life.
For many Black folks, grandparents are essential members of our village that we cannot live without! We may also experience conflicts between their ‘old school’ approaches and current ones. These doting grandparents were also once parents grappling with the concerns of childrearing in the tenuous terrain of the United States and striving to overcome fear- and trauma-based parenting.
Grandparents’ Hands: Wisdom Circle centers elder members of our P4L Village and a millennial parent moderator for a discussion about their parenting practices, what shaped them, what wisdom endures, and how their practices may have shifted over time to be more liberation-focused.
Spend your Sunday afternoon being nourished by ‘grand wisdom’ and with light refreshments!
