Ryerson University and Black Daddies Club co-presents “Returning Home” Online discussions

Greetings and Salutations, Community members 

Ryerson University WeSpeak research project and The Black Daddies Club have collaborated again to create the following virtual spaces for Black men.

You are invited to a two-part discussion for Black men entitled “Returning Home”. The conversation will take place on Zoom and we will be offering free registration for these events, space will be limited and will go quickly. 

Please see details below and share with your network.

How can we as Black men find a space for respite within ourselves as well as tap into other Black men, family and friends, and the broader community for support? Returning Home asks these questions. Centered on love, compassionate relationship building, and solidarity, we will also discuss community resources needed to support Black men’s general wellbeing.
