It’s Time To Remove The Stigma: Let’s Talk About It!
MI Healthy Mind is a 30-minute TV talk show with a focus on all things Health and Wellness, particularly in the mental health and behavioral sectors. Seasoned hosts, Elizabeth Atkins and Michael Hunter explore a vast range of subjects (addiction,
depression, bipolar, autism etc) with valuable insights and lively conversation from popular entertainers, experts, athletes, and other newsmakers. But most important, MI Healthy Mind showcases real people, “the heroes” who have
overcome and triumphed over their mental health issues. In the wake of incredible loss, or adversity, these people found a way to turn personal tragedy into hope.
“All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.” — Helen Keller
MI Healthy Mind Becoming Somebody: Building Self-Esteem in our Girls
October is National Bullying Prevention Month. Organizations like the Rhosebud Club or Rhoers Affiliates, a youth branch of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc., recognize the pivotal importance of giving young people, particularly girls and young women of color, the support, tools, and resources they need to build self-confidence. This self-confidence is instrumental in helping these young people reach their full potential even in the face of bullying, racism, sexism, and other hurdles they may encounter.
For far too long, women, especially women of color have been held back and marginalized by a society that undervalues them. Their limited opportunities are concerning and unjust. Furthermore, their sense of self-esteem and self-worth is damaged from internalizing the negative messages that are so insidious and so prevalent in the media and public discourse.
Jaliyah Haywood and Kiya Allen are proud members of The Rhosebud Club. They, along with their moms, Jenea Haywood and Amie Allen, explain the challenges of supporting their daughters in the face of society’s subtle and overt discrimination. All women credit Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority for helping to bolster the self-image and confidence of girls grappling with today’s pressures and developing their identities as young women of color.
Dr. Charmeka Newton, psychologist and author of Black Lives Are Beautiful, provides insight into the psychological toll that girls of color face as they find their way in a world that directly and indirectly judges and often shames them for everything from their hair to their body types.
