EMBARRASSED
by Karen Pecota

Steve McQueen, USA, 2022

The black male community suffers from prostate cancer in higher numbers than other ethnic groups, thus an awareness campaign is on the rise. More pressing is the encouragement for men to have regular check-ups with their doctor and to start when young. Various male celebrities are urging all men not to be embarrassed to talk about the issue with others or themselves. The repercussions of this cancer can be deadly if not caught in time. Research, ask questions and be proactive is the message EMBARRASSED shares to help others to not to be self-conscious or inhibited dealing with this issue. (KP)
