The C.O.W.S. On Beating Black Kids: Asadah Kirkland

Asadah Kirkland visits The Context of White Supremacy. A black mother with more than twenty years experience working with children, Ms. Kirkland's unconventional academic settings allowed for the freedom to teach her own curricula and deliver her own messages that nourished black students. We'll discuss her 2009 publication, Beating Black Kids. She investigates why large numbers of black people believe in and resort to physically hitting black children as a normative form of discipline. She connects this practice to our traumatic experience with White Supremacy and offers an abundance of alternative concepts and child-rearing strategies to rear healthy, creative, well-behaved black children. She was called on to share her views on the recent controversy surrounding football player Adrian Peterson whipping his young son. Ms. Kirkland was highly recommended by Ms. Lorne Cress Love - Dr. Frances Cress Welsing's sister. Since Mr. Kirkland is a Chicago, Illinois native, we'll see if she caught Spike Lee's latest release, Chi-Raq. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://paypal.me/GusTRenegade CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE: 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
