Black Mental Health Day Film Screening: Healing in Colour
Date: March 1, 2022 5:10 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. (online)
Registration: https://my.alumni.utoronto.ca/healingincolour
In a world where Black women are expected to be invulnerable to pain, a group of five Black women confront their personal struggles and explore healing through art.
Join us for a virtual viewing of “Healing in Color” which explores themes of mental health, wellbeing, trauma, and healing through art. The documentary film will be followed by a Q&A and discussion with the director, Nana Adwoa Frimpong (UTSC HBA 2018), and members of the cast and crew. This screening is in support of Black Mental Health Day, which is observed every year on March 1st to highlight the mental and physical impacts of anti-Black racism on Black communities.
This event is brought to you by the UTSC Mental Health Network, UTSC Health & Wellness Centre, UTSC Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Office, UTSC Development and Alumni Relations Office, and the Racialized Student Collective (Scarborough Campus Students' Union).
