My Challenge to White People This Week and Beyond
It’s time to end this fallacy that if you aren’t wearing hoods or Swastikas and using the “n-word with hard-R,” it means you are absolved from the many layers of prejudice.

It can be a gut punch for some men to admit their full-time job is to stay at home with the kids. Antiquated gender roles dictate that a man’s value is measured by a paycheck, not how well he can care for an infant throughout the day. But being a stay-at-home dad (SAHD) is becoming less of a punchline and more of a reality. Recent statistics show almost 1.4 million stay-at-home dads serve as the primary caregiver for their children. It can be overwhelming and sometimes even a bit lonely.
