What is Mental Health?

This is one of my most powerful conversations, and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. With so many social, financial, political, and familial challenges facing Black fathers, the conversation on men’s mental health has to be normalized and elevated. Our esteemed guests for this conversation are family medicine practitioner Dr. Britt Gayle, MD., Men’s Health Manager for the City of Milwaukee’s Health Department, Mr. Darryl Davidson, and Mr Eric L Crawford, a therapist focused on the success and healthy existence of Black families. This group of Black men, fathers, well-trained professionals illuminate mental health and its applicability to the focus of the Black Fatherhood podcast – educating, validating, and elevating Black men.  

One of the easiest ways to humanize Black fathers is to first see them as men, and people, outside of their essential familial roles. Black fathers have to be allowed their vulnerabilities, their challenges, their areas of growth, as much as we celebrate their strengths and importance.
