Who is Justin Hill?
My name is Justin Hill. I am a Leader, Organizer, Mental Health Advocate, Writer, Public Speaker and Educator.
In 2017, I became the founder of the Become A Threat Movement in South Florida. What is the Become A Threat Movement? Here, let me explain. For years … no, for centuries, Blacks both old and young, men and women have been portrayed as threats throughout media outlets. We are exposed to it on an exponential level with the explosion of social media.
With the Become A Threat movement organizers, activists and community leaders work to change the narrative of what it means to be labeled as a “Threat.” Instead of labeling us as a threat for our physical being, media portrayal and persona; label us as a threat for our positive goals and aspirations.
Alongside my personal branding and endeavors, I’ve also become an advocate for mental health in black and brown communities. Throughout my battles and others around me, I’ve seen many individuals fall victim to the grips of mental illness — I want to change that. I want to be the difference maker in our communities, who reaches out and breaks the stigma of mental health.
