Today we speak with Dr. Zoe Franklin, an Africana Studies Professor at a community college in Chicago, Illinois. We speak by phone. Dr. Franklin and I discuss the inner child, her acknowledgment, reclamation, and healing. She shares a series of journal reflections (100 completed) to let us hear the voice of her inner child. What does repair or mending sound or look like?  We appreciate Dr. Franklin's vulnerability and willingness to share her story with us today. We also appreciate the other women who have shared their Motherline Stories with us since March 2024. Dr. Franklin is our fifth participant.
