In this episode, Yolo Akili Robinson dives deep with Dr. Evan Auguste about the role of ancestral practices and spirituality in Black communities, focusing on how these practices can both heal and resist systemic oppression. They examine the tension between inherited spiritual traditions and modern ideologies, particularly within the context of Black churches and the challenges of honoring legacies while navigating the complexities of identity. The conversation then shifts to explore the emotional and psychological impact of rigid gender roles on Black men, particularly how these roles suppress vulnerability and emotional expression. They address how patriarchal structures, both inside and outside the community, harm Black men and perpetuate cycles of trauma, and offer insight into how healing and generative change can happen when we confront these issues. Expect an in-depth discussion on the connections between spirituality, identity, trauma, and healing within Black communities.Guest Info:Learn More about Evan AugusteBEAM Resources:Learn more about our Heart Space Healing CirclesLearn More about Black Masculinity (Re)ImaginedLearn More About our GrantsLearn More About our Wellness ToolsLearn More About our TrainingsLearn More About our Black Virtual Wellness DirectoryFollow BEAM!

Emmy and Peabody award winning author, Antonia Hylton, whose groundbreaking book, Madness: Race & Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum, uncovers the deep-seated injustices of Crownsville State Hospital, originally known as the Hospital for the Negro Insane of Maryland. Through the experiences of patients, doctors, nurses and community members, Hylton uses Crownsville’s history to expose the deep seated racism, ableism, and misogyny inherent in psychiatry’s roots in the United states, while also showing the defiance, resistance and re-imaginings of Black advocates and caretakers. In our discussion, we delve into this profound and troubling legacy and how Crownsville’s history reflects the current reality of mental health care and prison systems today. Join us as we explore these critical narratives and remix Black healing.Guest Info:Learn More about Antonia HyltonBuy a Copy of Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow AsylumBEAM Resources:Learn more about our Heart Space Healing CirclesLearn More About our GrantsLearn More About our Wellness ToolsLearn More About our TrainingsLearn More About our Black Virtual Wellness DirectoryFollow BEAM!
