It was an honor to be a part of the conversation alongside @BBCWillVernon and share my story on this episode. This is my 15th year as a speaker for @MindingYourMind and I’m always grateful for the opportunity to share and reflect on my journey of talking to students.
A "suicide epidemic": last year a record 50,000 Americans took their lives. On today's The Global Story, I spoke to @BBCWillVernon, who investigated this story & @jfburnham, who attempted suicide and is now an inspirational mental health advocate. Listen: bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct6dq…

.@jfburnham attempted suicide when he was 18. That was 15 years ago. He wrote a letter to his younger self. “Please just live for today because I promise tomorrow, and each day after, will get a little better.” inquirer.com/health/mental-h… *for help: call or text #988Lifeline*

Thank you @MikeFOX29 @AlexHolleyFOX29 and everyone at Good Day Philadelphia for this morning’s conversation. You mentioned wanting to keep this conversation going and I would say taking an hour to create space for this topic is a great place to start.

It was an honor to be interviewed and share my story within a space created for the conversation of mental health and suicide within the black community, but specifically the way it affects our youth. Thank you @cdcaron & @nytimes nytimes.com/2021/11/18/well/…

“Why don’t Black people talk about mental health?” I wrote this poem to highlight the parts of mental health that are very much visible and talked about in the Black community, and why they should be celebrated.
