The Unapologetic Guide to Black Mental Health exposes the disproportionate rate of mental health and other problems among black and POC populations in the US.

What does this book cover? 

Black Americans endure a higher death rate, more frequently fall prey to chronic illness and suffer a higher poverty rate than white Americans. This is as undeniable as it is indefensible, and it is having a huge impact on black mental health in the United States today. The Unapologetic Guide to Black Mental Health: Navigate an Unequal System, Learn Tools for Emotional Wellness, and Get the Help you Deserve seeks to make a small start on remedying it.

The Unapologetic Guide to Black Mental Health can help you:

• Recognise emotional and mental health issues
• Understand how these issues impact quality of life
• Develop the tools you need to heal, and to help others heal
