The Hidden Science of Black Love

What is Black Love? Does this differ from any other type of love? And how would you know when you’ve found it? How would you feel? What about self-love? How important is it to love the person in the mirror? What effect is social media having on our ability to love ourselves?

This event will explore all the above and more.
