LOS ANGELES – OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network announces an expanded Father’s Day Spotlight special “Honoring Our Kings: A Black Dad Conversation,” featuring Emmy award-winner Sterling K. Brown (This Is Us) as he hosts an intimate conversation with celebritydads including Grammy and Oscar award-winning artist and activist John Legend, stand-up comedian D.L. Hughley (The D.L. Hughley Show), pro football Hall of Famer and actor Tony Gonzalez and actor Deon Cole (Black-ish) to discuss the joys and challenges of Black fatherhood premiering Saturday, June 19 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on OWN.
The discussion goes deep as Fathers share their experiences with raising their children and even the personal feelings of wondering if you are enough when it comes to adopting children and being a Father to them. This is a discussion you do not want to miss because its rare we get to understand Black Fatherhood. Media tends to reflect at times on the negativity of the black man as a father so it’s time we show some truth about black men because not all are bad fathers!
‘Honoring Our Kings: A Black Dad Conversation’ Premieres Saturday, June 19 at 8pm ET/PT on OWN so be sure to tune in as OWN honors some amazing fathers!
