I'm not sure where to place this but I found an interesting article that highlights the stigma of mental illness as a "white girl thing" and the lack of portrayals of African American women and mental health in the media.
I Just thought I'd post it here if anyone's interested (the source is a feminist magazine that deals with pop-culture) because I think all perspectives can inform each other and there might be people here who are affected by this misrepresentation.
