The Mind: A Silent Killer
from Awkward Menage Hosted by Nibor Smailliw
Why does speaking properly, using proper grammar, and big words equate to one trying to "be white," within the black community. When did being an educated, or at least, sounding like an educated person of color become something to look down upon? There's also the issue of Mental Health in the black community. Too often it's swept under the rug instead of addressed. It's a cycle that needs to be broken, and a topic we all need to learn to take seriously. There are so many resources availabe for pre-screening and symptoms that we've provided a few down below. Learn the different types of mental illness and take a test or two if you think you may be on the verge or over the line for mental health. Most importantly: SEEK HELP if you feel you need it!
