Description

It’s Minnesota Fashion Week, and men’s mental health is hitting the runway on Thursday night.The show is called MAN DOWN, and curator Gayle Smaller Jr. is partnering with local non-profits to raise awareness — and funds — for men’s mental health, which often flies under the radar. According to the American Psychological Association, over 30 percent of men will suffer from depression at some point in their life, and stigma around men’s mental health means many won’t seek treatment.Gayle Smaller Junior is the curator of MAN DOWN and one of the producers for Minnesota Fashion Week. He joined MPR News guest host Emily Bright to share the inspiration behind the show, and what change he hopes to see come about.
