Mental Health and the Black Community with Sarah Fox
This Black History month and we wanted to highlight our friend and mental health advocate, Sarah Fox. Sarah is is shattering stigma around mental health in the black community on her podcast and @rough.edges.podcast.
In the episode Sarah shares:
• her experiences as a black woman living with bipolar 1 disorder in the US.
• the added stigmas and barriers that black folks face.
• mental illness stigmas in church
• what she thinks needs to change and how white folks can come along side as allies. She gives us a list below of black creators, authors and therapist to follow and learn from. We are so honoured that Sarah was willing to come on and have this hard and necessary conversation.
