Necessary Blackness Ep.55: Dr. Obari Discuss Mental Health Stigma, Black Manhood & Dynamics of Relationship

Necessary Blacks Podcast got a chance to catch up with Dr. Obari to discuss the stigma of Mental Health in the Black Community. We discuss how to understand and cope with a love one who is facing these conditions. The image of being strong disinclines people from showing vulnerability, which impedes the process to get the necessary help. Plus, the inherent distrust due to medical racism and inequality in care when it comes to Black folks. Dr. Obari also talks about his book, “Lady’s Man: Conversation For Young Black Men About Manhood & Relationships.

Dr. Obari will be at the Shrine of The Black Madonna tonight 4/24 at 6pm to discuss “Teaching Young Black Men To Value Women”
