BLACK MEN SMILE® (CREATOR)
Carlton created BMS as a platform for showing radical expressions of self-love as a form of resistance. It is about learning from each other and encouraging each other to go beyond stereotype and expectation. It is about defying gravity, as our predecessors always did, and paving the way for future generations to continue to do so.
During these times when so many stories are being told about us, we need those we tell about ourselves to be the truth.
