No matter your politics, it's a fact that different people face different safety and security challenges. A 200-pound Marine home on leave faces a reality that looks very different from that of a 100-pound woman with no combat training and limited mobility.

Race is part of those differences, impacting everything from health risks, to social scripts and expectations, to interactions with police. Michael Dorsey, host of parenting show Black Fathers NOW!, takes the time to discuss some of those differences...and many of the things we share in common. Whether you're a parent with a black or blended family, or an ally from a different checkbox on the census form, it's a conversation you shouldn't miss.
