Failures of Mental Health Access in the Black Community | NBCLX

Here is a story for NBCLX on mental health disparity in Milwaukee’s black community. As our mental health as a nation deteriorates we find stigma runs high in the black community and access to resources isn’t the same for everyone participating in the system. We explore cultural and historical reasons of why this is so. Thank you to Troney Small, Khary Penebaker, and Lakiesha Russell for sharing their stories. You can find the short documentary on Peacock TV, Roku, Apple TV, YouTube, and fuboTV.
