Episode 3

Beyond The Strong Black Women Stereotype

Description

“The most disrespected person in America is the Black woman. The most unprotected person in America is the Black woman.”– Malcolm X. 

We’ve heard from Black men on our first episode and now it’s time to hear from three gorgeous and outspoken Black women. Episode 3 covers the societal pressure against Black women and how our guests are working to fight stigmas and discrimination. Against a system that is prejudiced against BIPOC folx, hear from our guests on how you can thrive by following your intuition and surrendering to your vulnerability. It’s time to create your own seat at the table, Black queens!

Testimonials

I KNOW (not think) this was a much needed convo for me to witness and be in space with especially during this heightened time. Just seeing black womxn BE with one another & be their truest selves was everything we needed to witness and hold space for.”

- Ella

“I felt privileged to be allowed in the space and to hear these testimonials. It felt particularly profound that this space enabled the panelists to be both vulnerable and powerful at turns, which fostered a truly complex conversation.”
