proves my theory that living in an area where you dont need to code switch during your formative years is CRUCIAL to your identity development

that quote bg Fannie Lou Hamer means something to me. its so real but it hurts my heart :/

“Even the silence has a story to tell.”

its so tough getting to the space of being assertive when you’re both black AND woman

DEFINITELY a Black Woman

i love how this section separates worldly beliefs from what God says to be true

“imago dei” based on Genesis 1:27. look into this later

“… black women don’t need to cut themselves on the broken pieces of messed-up black men.”

studies like this are so important but we need to do MORE with combating those results

the messages from the young girls watch Disney movies….. heartbreaking
