Christian A’Xavier Lovehall is an #artist, #activist, and #transgender man who shares his journey of self-realization.

“I want the audience to understand that trans men exist, that we, too, are men of color and experience many of the #traumas and mistreatments black men experience in society, “ says Christian.

----------

Engaging Males of Color (EMOC) is a ground-breaking program established by the #Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual #disAbility Services that addresses the impact of health, economic, and educational disparities experienced by males of color.

One of their most successful initiatives is the storytelling series BEyond Expectations. EMOC works directly with Philadelphia’s #FirstPersonArts, a non-profit organization that celebrates the story in each one of us, to help the men prepare for their performance. With guidance from First Person Arts, stories are written, rehearsed and then finally performed in front of a live audience.

After the #stories are shared, there is time set aside so that audience members can follow up with their observations, comments, or questions. These stories are a spark for a much needed conversation in our culture about mental health. In this case, mental health specifically for males of color.
