Black Lives Matter: How Did We Get Here?

Black Lives Matter: How Did We Get Here?

In this conversation we strive to focus less on the current protests taking place and rather try to make sense of the things that led the black lives matter movement to this tipping point. Through this program special we hope our viewers will gain a bigger-picture view of this particular movement.

Black Lives Matter: Mental Health

Stigma surrounding treating mental health, speaking about mental health, and limited access to mental healthcare professionals has created roadblocks to some Black Americans receiving the help they need. On this program-special we strive to have an open conversation about Black trauma (and mental health in general) in hopes of our viewers will feel equipped to take steps towards bettering their health.
