NYC Dads Group members Lorne Jaffe and Christopher Persley discuss the portrayal of dads on the hit ABC-TV sitcom, Black-ish. They talk about race, the use of satire and comparisons to other TV shows featuring black families including The Cosby Show, 227, and The Jeffersons. Lorne and Christopher also caught up with the show’s star, Anthony Anderson, to ask him about modern fatherhood.
The Parents’ Phrase Book author and L.A. Dads Group member Whit Honea also joins to offer his heartfelt advice on talking to your kids about the fine line between stereotype and satire.
