Tune in to “Black Star News Show” on WBAI 99.5 FM Radio and www.wbai.org Tuesday, August 25, 2020, at 3 PM (US) Eastern Standard Time as Host Milton Allimadi interviews an African psychologist about mental illness and African-centered healing processes, on top of the hour.
Dr. Mawiyah Kambon is co-founder of Black Therapy Central www.blacktherapycentral.com and a practitioner and promoter of African-centered healing processes. She’s a trained psychologist with more than 30 years in the profession. She says the “Western” Eurocentric methodology doesn’t address the conditions, the history, and the experiences of African peoples. Dr. Kambon has also been organizing healing journeys to Ghana for Africans in the Diaspora for decades.
In the second half-hour of the show, Allimadi speaks with Theo Rogers, a young filmmaker from Milwaukee, Wisconsin whose debut documentary “Milwaukee In Pain” examines the explosive collision between COVID-19 and the historical systemic racism, segregation, and impoverishment of Black people in Wisconsin. African-Americans makeup about 25% of the population in Milwaukee county but accounted for about 50% of the COVID19-related deaths. As if this wasn’t enough, on Sunday, an unarmed African-American male, Jacob Blake, was shot multiple times in the back by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
