Description
A conversation is spreading across the country among Black men. The goal is to push men beyond survival and toward thriving. The multi-city tour is called Just Heal, Bro.
“We were not meant to do life alone. Babies die for lack of touch. We understand the reality of a solitary confinement. 24 hours without human contact, it literally starts to change the shape of your brain,” Lawrence Adjah, panelist for Just Heal, Bro, said.
Adjah said fellow host, Dr. Jay Barnett, wrote a book on the push. Here’s why: According to the CDC the rate of suicide among Black men and boys is increasing.
In 2020, suicide was the third leading cause of death, respectively, for Blacks or African Americans, ages 15 to 24. The death rate from suicide for Black or African American men was four times greater than for African American women, in 2018.
