The barbershop has always provided a safe haven for cultural chats in the Black and Latinx communities. These “male-only” spaces are important to men of all backgrounds and have special significance in communities of color. Male students are encouraged to discuss their strengths, including resilience, determination, and the ability to persevere in challenging situations. Psychology literature has stressed the importance of encouraging young men to demonstrate their passion for science and having opportunities to reflect on their experiences.
