The presence of racism and COVID-19 serves as a double pandemic, perpetuating the notion of invisibility in the black community. Join Joniesha Hickson, BA and Aneesha Perkins, MA as they host and facilitate a conversation with clinical psychologists, Dr. Candice Hargons, Dr. Delishia Pittman, and Dr. Jessica Smedley about the importance of black mental health and reflections on our resilience and heritage, while observing Juneteenth.
