A Miami prison is making news by holding the first ever father-daughter dance. The goal is pretty admirable:
“You are a key to the success of your father,” Federal Bureau of Prisons Director Charles E. Samuels, Jr. told the daughters,according to a bureau press statement which said “connections to families and children are critical aspects” of inmates’ reentry into society. Samuels encouraged the fathers to take an active part in the lives of their daughters, even if seems difficult from behind bars.
No pressure on these little girls, right? But this is a smart motivation–remind the prisoners that there are children counting on them.
Team Blackness also had some choice words for Andrew Sullivan, looked at hip hop therapy, and covered an uncomfortable line of questioning for Rick Perry at Dartmouth College.
