Hicks, best known for his impactful documentary“If You Are My Brothers,” brought both insight and inspiration to the discussion — shining a light on a topic that deeply affects men, especially within the Black community.

During the interview, Hicks emphasized the importance of early detection, education, and breaking the silence around men’s health. Drawing from his experience as a storyteller, he shared how film can be a powerful tool for advocacy — helping to humanize the statistics and spark meaningful conversations about prevention and support.
