Me and Your Mama: A Long Story Short

is the result of 5 years of reflection, therapy, and personal accountability from the author. It dispels the myth of black men's unwillingness to do either therefore passing down trauma to their kids. This book wrestles with the importance of healing from childhood trauma, police misconduct, and forgiveness. This journey to healing begins in the small town of Thomaston, Georgia, and leads him through several cities throughout the east coast where he learned valuable lessons. By combining his own story with wisdom given through various sources, Carl Willis hopes will empower you to seek your own healing.
