Gathering of the Griots - Women Living "The Female Solution"; Dr. Obari Cartman on Mental Health and

What is "The Female Solution"? It's a sisterhood of women who agree to unite with spiritually strong men in the rebuilding of our culture in order to raise healthy, happy children who will remake this world into the way it should be - a world of peace. The area of controversy in the book "The Female Solution" is the recommendation that men prepare themselves to marry multiple wives in order to provide good mates for all women and fathers for all children, in a cultural lifestyle that is practiced in many parts of the world. Today we examine the book The Female Solution, and talk to women who are living or have lived lives as "sister-wives" in order to get a better understanding of the relationship of sisterhood between women. We also take a look at the historic sexual abuse that was introduced as part of the African Slave Trade which continues to emotionally scar African American men and women and creates difficulties in forming healthy personal relationships. This is often the root cause of the intense response to what is a normal lifestyle of extended family, however, the American American experience has been quite abnormal. Today we'll discuss how our cultural creativity in books, music, films, etc. can help redefine positive expressions of our sexuality. We'll examine whether emotionally healthy women can in fact form a cooperative motherhood in raising children. In our second hour we'll be joined by Dr. Obari Cartman, author of "Lady's Man" who discusses an upcoming mental health conference. How are men affected mentally and emotionally by broken relationships?
