Abstract
In an era of #BlackLivesMatter, more attention has been given to the historically disproportionate level of state-sanctioned violence against Black men, along with the health disparities and the corresponding higher mortality rates that impact them and the Black community. In response to these socio-political inequalities brought to the forefront by the COVID-19 pandemic, protests, speeches, and rallies convened around the country. Yet, there is still a need for an intervention that creates a communal culture of sacred space for Black men. This article reports on a case study examining Jazz for Prostate Cancer Awareness, which used a womanist frame for religious health education. Womanism aims to liberate the entire being, including the mind, the body, and the soul, of Black women (and men), which works well as an intervention and an alternative to the status quo public health education strategies.
