On this episode of #WhereAreWeNow podcast brought to you by NiceThings Network, Myles Hart sat with Black Minds Matter Us very own Minowa Norton, their Project Support administrator. In this episode the two get into all things Mental Health, its importance, effects of poor Mental Health, ways you can better your Mental Health and discuss factors as to why there is such a stigma is the black community.
Not only does Minowa share her own journey regarding Mental Health but how she pursued it as a career. She tells us how Black Minds Matter came about, their aim and what they are currently doing to provide Black people with the mental health services they need.
This conversation aims to raise the awareness of issues Black people face regarding Mental Health and how we can combat that, whilst also normalising its discussion. We also celebrate the work of the Black Women making this change possible in the Black community. Further more they discuss how it is extremely important when vetting all therapists to ensure the safest environment for their clients, including ensuring all therapists are allies or apart of the LGBTQDL+ community.
