Take Note: A Conversation with Leonard Pitts, Part 2

In his book Becoming Dad, syndicated columnist Leonard Pitts, Jr., poses the question: How do you make yourself a good father if a good father is something you’ve never seen? In the style of Studs Terkel, Pitts traveled the country, talking with black men about their experiences with their fathers, chronicling their stories of abuse, neglect, and love. He also writes about his relationship with his own abusive father and about his resolve to be a good parent to his children. Becoming Dad: Black Men and the Journey to Fatherhood is published by Longstreet.
