Summary

Laurence Fishburne and Jason Wilson visit Stephen A. to discuss their award-winning film, “The Cave of Adullam”. The poignant documentary centers on four Black boys who attend Wilson’s Detroit martial arts studio and the transformative principles he instills in them as they each deal with unresolved trauma, anger, fear, and anxiety. It is a revealing conversation about the importance of Black fatherhood, community, and a testament to the healing power of love as Wilson sets these fragile tween boys on a path to become whole and healthy adults.  Support the show: http://www.youtube.com/@stephenasmith
