We are bridge builders.

Provocative, engaging, and thought provoking. The Black Mental Health Alliance is prepared to provide a bi-monthly podcast opportunity for all who understand (or are ready to learn) that #blackmindsmattter, first.

Real Talk: Black Minds Matter

Ep.2: The 411 on the 5-O

October 20, 2020 • Black Mental Health Alliance for Education and Consultation, Inc. • Season 1 • Episode 2

This podcast will discuss how police brutality disproportionately affects Black people and people of color, the link between experiences of police brutality and the collateral mental health affects. In this episode, co-hosts Andrea Brown and Nia Jones discuss what we need to teach our sons and daughters (and ourselves) if we are stopped by the police, what to expect, and what we should do. This is the REAL 411 on the 5-0!
