The myth of the "Absent Black Father" harms American culture and the mental health of Black men and their families. The Black Fathers' Pulse Podcast, hosted by Dr. Alvin Thomas, a clinical psychologist, associate professor, and Director of the TRYLab at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, aims to dismantle this myth. Through engaging conversations with Black authors, artists, and academics, the show explores issues affecting Black fathers, both past and present, and celebrates and strengthens Black Fatherhood.
