A grassroots organization with a chapter in St. Louis is working to give Black men the tools necessary to heal, develop leadership skills and become politically astute. Black Men Build offers members a space to be vulnerable and serve the very community they may have previously harmed. The organization was founded in Miami and currently has eight chapters throughout the country.

Serroge Watt and Ronnie Amiyn discuss the necessity for healing circles as a tool that Black men can pass down to their families.
