Mental Health
Mental Health in society has always been stigmatized in society, and while we do continue to make progress in recognizing its importance, The Black Community faces a unique barrier to mental health wellness: Systematic Racism. Racism has not only prevented us from receiving adequate treatment for mental health issues, but continual hardships have forged a culture of “Strength” in the black community. This strength is our legacy and proves that we are truly resilient but have greatly stigmatized mental illness, which may not be seen as real hardship, or worse deemed as something derogatory. In this Episode, I will discuss the stressors that affect our community, and its effect on black women and specifically black men. I will also discuss the role of music for black men in expressing their feelings and frustrations. I will also be joined by Dr. Linda J.M. Holloway, the Program Coordinator of the Counseling Education Program at Alabama State University, spoken word poet, and author of 4 children books, one of which is called Little Miss Linda Goes to Counseling. We discuss her children’s books, the impact of oppression on the mental health of young black children, and the importance of affirmations and faith to make it through life’s tribulations.

Join me and Qualesha’s kiki session as we discuss both our birth experiences and how she as a young black woman persevered after suffering not one but TWO rare birth complications. We will also get educated by Dalia Abrams, certified doula and co-founder of Birthwell Partners: A Community Doula Project, a non-profit in Birmingham, AL. We will discuss how her and Susan Petrus founded their project, the important work doulas do, and how they can be the key to reducing C-Section rates.
