This week on the Black Robe Podcast, Co-hosts Anzhane Slaughter and Carol Mitchell talk about gun violence and mental health in the black community.  If we’re not experiencing it directly, we’re reading about it or hearing about it. Gun violence has taken far too many young black lives. Domestic violence and lack of access to mental healthcare have torn apart too many black families. The pandemic has exacerbated all of this. We need to talk about this y’all.
