This Mother’s Day weekend, we are joined by local author and mom Anna Malaika Tubbs. Her new book, “The Three Mothers,” shines a light on the difficult and often overlooked work of Black mothers, while exploring the lives of the women who birthed and raised Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and James Baldwin.

She and host Alex Cohen also talk about the best gifts one can give to mothers everywhere. Hint: It’s not flowers or chocolate.
