Madame Noir Panel and the Lack of Family Planning

A 2018 panel discussion from the website Madame Noir reveals a mindset among some black women that "no one plans" to be a mother. The hosts express concern that this lack of intentionality is accepted as a norm despite the high rate of single-parent households in the community. They question why there is no pushback against the idea that parenthood is merely an unplanned event.
