Ep. 150: Governor Wes Moore on Trump, Violence & a message of Hope for Black America

In XYBM 150, we sit down with Governor Wes Moore, the 63rd Governor of Maryland and the state's first Black governor. Moore discusses a range of topics from his commitment to building stronger communities and reducing violent crime, to the vital need for supportive policies for Black men and boys.

The conversation also delves into the importance of mental health, inherited trauma, and the misunderstood necessity of focusing on men’s well-being.
