Kicking off our Black History Month series on The Positive Professional Podcast with a powerful episode: “Drapetomania” ✊

Drapetomania was a racist pseudoscience designed to pathologize the natural desire for freedom. In this episode, we uncover the disturbing history of how mental health has been weaponized against the Black community and why understanding this past is crucial in dismantling systemic racism today.
