A real conversation about Black men, anxiety, stress, and healing—because survival isn’t the same as wellness.
About this Event

What to Expect

Still Here: Mental Health, Healing, and the Conversations We Avoid is a powerful one-hour live conversation centered on Black men navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, and unresolved mental health challenges—often while being expected to stay strong and silent.

This event brings together voices from mental health, law, public service, and lived experience to explore what it truly means to be still here—present, surviving, and searching for healing in a world that rarely makes space for Black men’s vulnerability.

Attendees can expect:

  • Honest dialogue about anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and unspoken pressure
  • Conversations about masculinity, stigma, and why help is often delayed or avoided
  • Reflections on coping vs. healing, survival vs. wellness
  • A respectful, trauma-informed space focused on listening—not fixing
  • Audience Q&A and shared reflection guided by an experienced host

This is not a lecture or a performance. It is a grounded, human conversation designed to validate lived experience, reduce isolation, and encourage healthier pathways to support and care.

Whether you are a Black man carrying stress in silence, a family member, an ally, or a professional, Still Here invites you to witness, reflect, and engage in a conversation that moves beyond awareness and toward presence, connection, and accountability.
