Often times in media and popular culture, entertainers are the representation of success for those who identify as black or African-American. There's another side to that success story.
Often times in the black community we speak on generational curses, trauma, etc. There can be many remedies for breaking or dispelling "generational curses." In my opinion, cross-generational conversations serve as one of the best forms of treatment. On the season finale of "The Other Side" podcast the 2020 VHSL 6A Wrestling State Champion Trevon Gray and his father Teante Gray discuss their journeys through uncharted territory as wrestlers. Father, Teante Gray shares how his mistakes early were preparation for his son's future successes. Additionally, we discuss how the polarizing injustices of summer 2020 led to a family conversation around social decorum.
