Abstract

This essay critically explores the intersection of brain health and dementia research within the context of Black men's lived experiences. It interrogates dominant narratives of brain health that prioritize individual responsibility while neglecting systemic and structural determinants of health. Drawing on a life-course perspective, the essay advocates for inclusive research practices that center Black men's voices, challenge deficit-based assumptions, and address systemic barriers to brain health. Finally, it outlines a roadmap for transformative research, advocacy, and care that advances brain health equity.
