"It's Not Just Menthol" | Menthol Funeral | Buffalo NY
Channel: The WIN Initiative
Date: 2023-10-10

Join us as we gather in Buffalo, New York, to pay our respects and shed light on a significant issue that has long plagued our communities. In this solemn yet impactful event, we bid farewell to tobacco and menthol related products, which have disproportionately targeted Black Americans for decades.

🕊️ At this unique "funeral," we come together to raise awareness about the harmful effects these products have had on the health and well-being of our community members. Tobacco and menthol products have been marketed in ways that have disproportionately impacted Black lives, contributing to health disparities and systemic inequalities.

🌱 Through heartfelt speeches, personal stories, and informative discussions, we aim to educate and empower everyone to make healthier choices. Our speakers, including health professionals, community leaders, and advocates, will shed light on the importance of breaking free from the grasp of these harmful products.

🎶 The event will feature uplifting musical performances, artistic expressions, and a candlelight vigil to remember those who have been affected by tobacco-related illnesses. As we lay these products to rest, we recommit ourselves to promoting healthier alternatives and supporting each other on the journey to better health.

🤝 This is not just a ceremony; it's a call to action. We invite you to stand with us, learn with us, and unite for change. Let's work together to create a future where everyone can breathe easier and live healthier lives, free from the disproportionate impact of harmful products.
