Cinematic Conversations
The focus of the symposium is the outgrowth of ongoing conversations between Black mental health professionals and artists who explore the intersection of film and mental health messaging. The goal is to expand conversations and destigmatize beliefs about mental health therapy in the Black community through the medium of film.
