Faith Talks on Mental Health Awareness Month

Join the Faith Talks podcast live on Thursday, May 16, at 2 p.m. ET.

We are keen to focus on the ways racism impacts one’s mental health journey, and further endangers persons who are differently abled. We’ll examine what’s happening in schools with regards to students with disabilities and the loss of innocence of young people of color. Guests include Dara Baldwin, who will discuss her forthcoming book To Be a Problem: A Black Woman’s Survival in the Racist Disability Rights Movement. Host Jennifer R. Farmer will also interview Kristin Henning, author of Rage of Innocence, and Cheryl Poe, executive director of Advocating 4 Kids, Inc.
