Interview about partnership with AT&T and the 28 Days Project.
Quote from the interview:
“Eva Greene Wilson is the Editor and owner of SocaMom.com, an award winning website for Caribbean parents. Like me, she’s a first generation Trinidadian-American. Determined to learn more about where her own family fit into Black History Month, Eva sat down with her father to learn about the moments that matter.”
MyMommyVents: What inspired you to create this project?
Eva Greene Wilson: I was approached by AT&T to work with them on their 28 Days initiative, and to investigate the moments in my family history that mattered to me. When I thought about how I would share that with my readers, I thought about why they come to the site. Most of my visitors are recent immigrants to the US, Canada, or the UK, or have parents or grandparents from the Caribbean and are first generation citizens. For us, one of the major moments that mattered, was when the decision was made to leave the Caribbean to live and work in another country. The sum total of the moments that mattered in my dad’s life made the moments that matter in my life possible. I felt like it was a concept that my readers could identify with, and that would inspire them to go on their own journey to find out what moments in their family had a major impact on black history as it relates to their lives.
