Scottsdale resident Bin McLaurin, 55, shares a story of survival and a topic not talked about openly in his demographic. A prostate cancer survivor and men’s health advocate, he describes past, isolated feelings of “shame in discussing cancer, especially for men.”
McLaurin says he is on a mission to connect, inspire and uplift other cancer survivors — especially Black men. According to McLaurin, one in three Black men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime, and one in five will die from the disease in the U.S.
The reality is one all too common.
