Why?
As mental health continues to grow within various racial/ethnic populations and social groups, it is evident a safe space to discuss mental health within all the realms of life is needed. Vulnerability on other streams of media can serve as an outlet but unfortunately it exposes people to misinformation and judgement.
Welcome to Minds Over Melanin!
What is Minds Over Melanin?
A home platform where you are free to express yourself, your thoughts, your feelings, and your way of life. Minds Over Melanin is a mental health community to support persons of color, most especially those of the African diaspora. Minds Over Melanin symbolizes collective support to surpass the stigma of mental health within communities of color.
What Can I Expect?
You can expect warmth, support, and evidence-based guidance. Each week will entail a mental health blog post that highlights a common experience with relevant psychoeducation and helpful strategies to move forward as the best version of yourself. You are welcome and encouraged to comment, discuss, and connect with one another. We are a village now!
