7:33Now PlayingSimone Gordon, a Black community organizer and nonprofit founder known as “The Black Fairy Godmother” on Instagram, will talk about how her experience as a single mother inspired her work helping families.
“I experienced discrimination and doors being slammed in my face when my son was 3 and he needed ... resources,” she said. “So, when mothers come to my platform on social media needing assistance, I get it.”
Gordon hopes to inspire listeners to join her in restoring marginalized communities. Last year, she won a Special Achievement Webby Award for her efforts.
Watch her share her story from our Motherhood show, which aired May 4, 2021.
