What‘s Really Good? w/ Lauren Reliford, MSW

People of color and all those whose lives have been marginalized by those in power experience life differently from those whose lives have not been devalued. They experience overt racism and bigotry far too often, which leads to a mental health burden that is deeper than what others may face. Today, we join Lauren Reliford, MSW, Political Director at Sojourners to discuss the link between racism and mental health, how cultural identity can be a protective factor and how we all should find support from family, friends and community.
