American award-winning writer Zinzi Clemmons, author of What We Lose and Freedom, talks about her South African mother, Dorothy — an activist and teacher who devoted her life to serving underprivileged Black children.
Dorothy teaches us to raise independent daughters by modelling feminism, not just talking about it; to demand respect in every relationship; to show our children what healthy love looks like; and to always have the means to leave if a relationship no longer works.
Zinzi also reflects on grief, writing, the realities of apartheid, and the deep connection between teaching and mothering.
