  • Summary

  • In this compelling episode of Radical Love Live, hosts Mark Dilcom and Kelly Wilson sit down with Nicole Doyley, author of What About the Children, to discuss her powerful journey as a biracial child of a Black father and a White mother during a time when interracial marriage was still illegal in parts of the United States. Nicole shares intimate reflections on how her family's silence around race shaped her experience and why it’s vital for families—and society as a whole—to embrace honest, sometimes uncomfortable, conversations about race. Today, Nicole is a mother of two teenagers, and navigating this conversation within her own family. Together, we explore the emotional impact of being biracial, the challenges of navigating identity, and the importance of dismantling silence that perpetuates racial harm. Nicole also delves into how these conversations align with the Christian faith tradition, reminding us that avoiding hard truths is contrary to the radical love and justice we are called to embody. This episode is a heartfelt invitation to confront racial dynamics with courage, vulnerability, and a commitment to transformative dialogue. Tune in for a conversation that challenges us all to step into the messy, beautiful work of reconciliation and justice. You can find Nicole and her books at www.NicoleDoyley.com. Nicole also hosts a podcast, Let’s Talk: Conversations on Race, which can be found on Apple and Spotify. . 🎧 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to Radical Love Live, a member of the QuoirCast network. www.RadicalLoveLive.com and www.Quoir.com Find your guides at Quoir Academy!
