By sharing their lived experiences, members of Black Men Speaks and Men of Color promote self and communal wellness, recovery, and freedom.Goals:In addition to healing the African American community and communities of color from trauma, stigma and discrimination, Black Men Speak and Men of Color promote positive mental wellness by mentoring, advocating, and assertively addressing other issues in the community.While the members of Black Men Speak believe in the importance of sharing their stories with diverse audiences, they contend that they do not represent or speak on behalf of the entire African American community.
