THE DR. VIBE SHOW - JOHNATHON BRIGGS - EXISTING WHILE BLACK IS A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION - MAY 5 - 2020
Johnathon Briggs is a 40-something father who favors wingtip shoes and statement socks. He launched his blog, Fatherhood@Forty, in 2017, a year after he was invited to speak at his college reunion about “when life goes off script.” A classmate inspired by his remarks pulled him aside and said, “If you had a blog, I would read it.” Fatherhood@Forty chronicles Johnathon’s journey through fatherhood, from date nights and dad bod to raising a child with special needs and musings about current events. Johnathon and his family live in the ‘burbs of Chicago but every winter he dreams of returning to his home state of California. His favorite hashtag is #BlackDadMagic. Recently, Mr. Briggs was on our show talking about his recent article Existing While Black Is a Pre-Existing Condition.
