Скачать или смотреть The Hidden Harm: Mental Health Impacts of Microaggressions Part 1

Welcome,

We often think of mental health challenges as stemming from big, obvious events—but what about the quiet, subtle, everyday comments or actions that cut just as deep? These are microaggressions—small in delivery, but powerful in impact, especially for marginalized groups. They can chip away at your confidence, sense of belonging, and even physical health over time—often without you realizing the full toll. In Part 1 of ‘The Hidden Harm,’ we’re going to unpack how these moments quietly erode mental well-being, why they’re more damaging than they seem, and how understanding them is the first step toward resilience, advocacy, and healing. Because when you can name the harm, you can start reclaiming your power.

Best,
Anthony Umeh
