Overview
One of the many disturbing aspects of grieving is experiencing a variety of unexpected or seemingly uncontrollable emotions and/or physical sensations. Often African American/Black men who mourn fear that they “are going crazy” or somehow “abnormal” in how they are responding to their loss. The goal of this seminar is to teach, inform and encourage providers to be anti-racist and anti-oppressive when providing services to African American/Black men who are experiencing traumatic grief and loss.
