Everything from the order of the household, to children, to needing social breaks, and social norms, we go deep in this episode to discuss major topics related to the conversation. How do you feel about marriage? is it necessary? Are humans even meant to be monogamous? Lets talk about it in the #groupchat.

In light of everything going on in the world around us, Melanin Milieu wanted to take the time to share some positivity and what better way to do that than sharing nostalgia from our Black childhoods!
