Launch of new Mad Studies Publication & Film Screening on Racialized Mental Health

The Critical Perspectives on Mental Health Robarts' Research Cluster invites you to the launch of their second special edition of Canada Watch: Rethinking, Reframing, and Reimagining Madness, followed by a screening of short films related to racialized mental health and a discussion with the 3 Canadian Directors.

Come join us for an afternoon learning about mad studies research coming out of Canada. The short films bring attention to Canadian experiences that are not often discussed and show the multitude of intersecting identities among Canadians. The intention is to bring together the York community to engage in a dialogue about mental health and madness among racialized communities in Canada.

Content warning: the short films explore the themes of suicide, self-harm, mental illness, and social exclusion, that some viewers may find difficult to discuss.

This event is possible with the support from the York Centre for Asian Research and the Robarts Centre for Canadian Studies.
