Why do doctor visits feel so short? Because doctors are often trying to review charts, listen, make decisions, document, order tests, send prescriptions, and deal with insurance in a very limited time window. It is also a system design issue. What do you wish they had more time to explain?

“If you have one real friend, you are blessed.” Today’s #MentalHealthMonday post is for my brother Keith Harris — and for every man still trying to stay strong alone. Loneliness kills. Connection heals. Friendship is medicine. #BlackMensMentalHealth #Brotherhood #KeithHarris
Update: Mom delivered safely but the baby had green amniotic fluid and needs follow up tests. This can happen when labor is delayed or stressful. Please don’t labor alone. Know your hospital. Advocate early. Black maternal health matters. #MinorityHealthPartners
There’s new reporting about an mRNA vaccine for pancreatic cancer showing promise in an early trial. This is treatment research, not prevention. We lost someone close to me, Jonathan P. Hicks, to pancreatic cancer. So when I hear news like this, I hear possibility. Hope, caution, or both?
Spoke at BAAM on Black fathers and neurodiversity. The research supports it. But beyond research, lived experience confirms it. Presence changes trajectories. Black fathers are not assistants in the home. We are stabilizers. If you’re blessed to be present, stay. #BlackFathers #Neurodiversity

Monday for me meant choosing learning over arguing. I spent the day learning more about Dr. King instead of engaging in online conflict. Sometimes that’s the healthiest option
Community health didn’t start as a policy debate. It started as community action. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Black Panther Party launched: – Free breakfast programs – Community clinics – Sickle cell awareness initiatives – Patient advocacy #BlackHistoryMonth #PublicHealth
A lot of men were never taught the language for what they feel. Sometimes what looks like anger is really frustration, fear, shame, or overwhelm. What’s an emotion you think men struggle to talk about the most? #MentalHealthMonday
Too many Black women know what it feels like to have symptoms minimized or brushed off. Self-advocacy is not being difficult. It can be lifesaving. If your body is telling you something is wrong, keep pushing.
Mental Health Monday. If you felt unsettled after this weekend, that reaction is valid. This isn’t about arguing or taking sides. It’s about mental health and choosing responses that help us stay grounded rather than overwhelmed. Do what’s within your capacity. Protect your peace.
Absolute bombshell. Prominent Australian activist Juliet Lamont exposes the terrifying reality of Zionist detention. She confirms Israeli forces systematically tortured activists, detailing horrific sexual assaults and beatings. MSM is actively hiding these war crimes.
America is backsliding. When a representative is physically restrained in order to be excluded from the decision-making process, we must stand together and resist! Fuck these racists! Tennessee is looking real ugly lately.
It’s been 423 days since Pappas held a public town hall, and he avoids Granite Staters outside controlled settings. Pappas says it’s because of a Republican tracker. A kid. Yet somehow we’re supposed to believe he’s courageously “fighting Trump.” #nhpolitics #newhampshire #votekarishmaforsenate

wish yall a happy solstice. our humanity is important and worthy of keeping. there is no ideology, dogma, or reward worth losing it for. to deny the humanity of others is to deny our own, if thats not the selling ones soul, im not sure what is. #humanity #morality #folkart #humanism #pottery

Every dollar donated to Congress is public record. Most people just don't know where to look. 💰We're changing that. Every member of Congress, every contribution, all in one place. Individual donors, PACs, al of it is tracked and searchable. #MoneyInPolitics #Congress #PoliticalFunding
A reporter asked about progress reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and Marco Rubio replied, "It would be pretty ambitious to be able to open the Straits at this meeting here." Imagine thinking that doing your actual job at a major global summit is just too ambitious for you.

Carbon monoxide is odorless, invisible, and deadly, and right now, there is no federal requirement that hotels have detectors at all. Chuck lost his son and his son’s girlfriend to carbon monoxide poisoning at a resort in Mexico. Leslie and her son were poisoned in a hotel with no detector.

Journalist: Why do you send so many drones to Denmark? I won't do it anymore - says Putin with a sarcastic smirk. With the same smirk, he claimed back in 2014 that the Russian army wasn't present in Donbas.
