About this listen

Today's show explores the intersection of race, gender and grief, specifically looking at Black men and the grief process. Although grief is a natural social process, it is often misunderstood and can have negative implications for one's psychosocial development if left unattended or if inadequately processed. Because Black men not only experience normal grief, but are susceptible to egregious injustices and senseless acts that result in grievous experiences; understanding the social, cultural and psychological aspects of Black men’s grief process deserves attention. Join us today as we take a look at gender differences in response to grief, and as we discuss various social and cultural implications related to the Black man's grief experience. Tune in and learn ways that you may be able to help care for a Black man's grieving heart.
