#RealTalk 1-on-1 w/ Benjamin Carlton | Writing Our Own Narratives of Strength

During the MBK Rising (a My Brother’s Keeper event) in Oakland, Bedford sits down with Benjamin Carlton in order to have a conversation about Benjamin’s work in supporting mentorship and community building. Benjamin goes on to talk about his experience in helping to amplify the strength-based narratives of Black men who enrich their communities regardless of who is watching. Benjamin shares some of his own narrative as a gay black minister who came out to his faith community. The conversation wraps up with a building session around the need for difficult dialogues within Black communities. Follow Benjamin @ibencarlton on Instagram & Twitter.
