This year's Lena Baker Women's Health & Domestic Violence Summit will explore the mental health effects of continuous physical and psychological traumas that plagues American of the slavocracy system (ADOSS) through the music of Curtis Mayfield (Jun 03, 1942 - Dec 26, 1999). Mayfield was a prolific songwriter that wrote about being Black in America and black consciousness. We will explore Mayfield's most iconic songs that address internal colonization "We the People Are Darker Than Blue", Identity production "This Is My Country", and "People Get Ready".
