Maree Buscke reconnects with her very first guest, author Adam Coleman, to discuss his new book The Children We Left Behind. Building on the deeply personal themes of his debut, Black Victim to Black Victor, Adam shares his raw and reflective insights on growing up without a father, the emotional cost of family separation, and the societal neglect of children raised in broken homes. With empathy and honesty, he critiques the cultural and personal selfishness that undermines family cohesion, and champions storytelling as a force for healing. Adam speaks candidly about forgiveness, his journey to becoming a devoted father, and the quiet resilience of his mother, a nurse who refused government aid and worked tirelessly to provide for her.
