Professor Daphne Watkins spoke with Forbes about how “Invisible Game,” a new video series of in-depth conversations with celebrated athletes, is helping to create new narratives about mental health, particularly among Black boys and men.
“Not only has this experience been healing for the athletes and celebrities themselves but we’re beginning to hear a lot of positive feedback from people who are watching the series who are feeling like, if this person I admire and look up to has had this experience and they’re brave enough to come forward and speak about it, maybe I can too,” said Watkins.
