Zoe Spears is just one of ten people in the LGBTQ community have been killed just this month. Only half a mile away her friend Ashanti Carmon was killed. While pride celebrations are going on in cities throughout the U.S. there are people being murdered because they want to be who they are. Some of these people are people you know, some are your children and they are in danger. We need to love people and not judge them or force them to be something they are not. In this episode, I talk about what is going on with the LGBTQ community and what we can do.

Older father's in society For years society has told women that their clock is running out or you better have that baby now because you're not getting any younger . But many men have heard from other men saying you not missing anything and ooh it's stressful and the the cost to support a child is overwhelming. Now that I was in my late 30's when I had my first son and in my 40s when I had my second son, however, I was 19 when I had my first child so I have seen it from both sides. Here is my take on older fathers in this episode of "Conversations with Dray."

People say that people of color and/or people living in poverty do it to themselves, that we are the problem.

With increasing number of children committing suicide reports, we have to start wonder why this is happening.
