February brings the opportunity to celebrate Black History Month and examine, learn and revisit the missing and unacknowledged chapters in our history as a nation.

This month is about celebrating the many contributions of African Americans in the United States. It is about recognizing how far Black Americans have come throughout history and highlighting areas that still need work. One of those areas is mental health.

In this podcast learn more about how to honor African-American contributions in the United States in order to create a mentally healthier world that recognizes overlooked communities and their stories.

Through this endeavor, we hope to: • Celebrate the ongoing examples of brilliance, excellence and success of African Americans who have, and continue to, pave the way to give rise to better mental health for African-Americans • Encouragement to further examine how systemic racism and covert systems of oppression perpetuate the art of exclusion and the Barriers to Mental Health Treatment for African Americans • Expand our knowledge of the contributions, struggles and resiliency of African Americans in the world of mental health • Support one another in recognizing the pivotal roles African Americans have and continue to play in our country
