Text Me When You Get Home // 2024
Text Me When You Get Home is a project centered around Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) individuals who struggle with their mental health and who have found a safe space they call their own. As I get older I have noticed the discourse around mental health and BIPOC has been on a rise but is still underlooked. I’ve heard and seen BIPOC be shut down when starting to open up about their mental health, either from scrolling online or comments from past friends. As a Black woman, I find it important that BIPOC are open and included in the conversation more often and frequently. Many of us struggle behind closed doors, can’t afford resources, or don’t have someone to reach out to. So where do they, you and me go?
