“Don’t Cry for Me”

In this powerful opening conversation, Dr. Handy was joined by acclaimed author, professor, and cultural critic Dr. Daniel Black. His acclaimed novel Don’t Cry for Me—now a short film—tells the story of a Black father’s final letter to his estranged gay son. In its pages, we find echoes of McCormick’s own mission: to wrestle with complexity, to center the marginalized, and to engage art as a means of spiritual formation and prophetic transformation. This isn’t just literature—it’s a conversation for healing and imagination.

  • Trauma 

  • Vulnerability

  • Redemptive Love

  • Black Identity
