I am currently a senior and for my thesis I’ll be creating one of braided’s biggest publications! After attending events such as @blackspacehq and seeing zines such as @mentalrealnessmag and extensive research I wanted to create a series of publications that are filled with conversations and resources for black mental health. I want this series to be an open voice for the community, led and created with its help.
In the words of Bell Hooks, the reason and inspiration for this project. The book "Rock My Soul: Black people and self-esteem" explains in better words how I will conduct this project:
I want to find a solution through a "rigorous examination of the issue concluding with suggestions of what we can do"
I want to create "A study through conversation to find the common emotional denominator"
This survey will be the beginning of my research to create something that not only I want but everyone else wants. Please if you have time my survey should take only 10 minutes! I am also open to any and all criticisms and critique as this project is not just my voice! Reach out with any questions, thank you!
