Unveiling the Journey: GodFood Documentary and Black Men's Health
🌟 This is just the beginning! 🌟
Yesterday, I had the privilege of screening 30 minutes of the powerful documentary GodFood with the Los Angeles Urban League, Young Professionals. The film delves into a critical question: What should Black Men eat in America?
🎥 About GodFood:
Inspired by candid conversations within our network, we follow D. Antione, Producer, and Host of the All Black Everything Podcast, on a quest to uncover the truth about the food available to Black Men. Our mission? To create a new guideline that supports the health goals of Black men in America.
🔍 In-Depth Exploration:
In seven thought-provoking episodes, I'll be interviewing experts, doctors, community leaders, nutritionists, chefs, surgeons, and health professionals. Together, we'll assemble a comprehensive guide for black men's dietary health. With so many diet options available—fasting, plant-based, keto, Vegan, Atkins, Pescatarian, paleo—how do we determine what's best for us? Should we adjust our diet as our activity levels change or as we age?
📊 The Disparity:
Black men face the worst statistical disadvantages in morbidity and mortality, often linked to diet & exercise. But let's go deeper. How has historical context—slavery, the middle passage—shaped our adaptation and evolution? These are questions we'll explore.
Join the conversation! Let's empower Black Men to make informed choices for their well-being. 🙌
A snippet of yesterday's screener of the documentary GodFood featuring Davonte Green We created a 30 minute compressed version for the Los Angeles Urban League, Young Professionals event and it was to a captive audience with a wonderfully informative panel discussion with Emmanuel R., Mary M. Lee and the Director/Writer/Producer of GodFood, D. Antione Dixon. The final version will be a 7 part series. We are currently seeking partnerships and funding to fully discuss the topic of black men's health and the many aspects that contribute to it.
