The Color of My Resilience - A Guided Self-Care Journal for Women
Defining myself, as opposed to being defined by others, is one of the most difficult challenges I face."
Carol Moseley Braun
Strong Black Woman. Black Girl Magic. These six words can motivate, but they can also intimidate and misrepresent. There is no otherworldly magic in a Black woman's capacity to survive, no more than there is in her ability to thrive despite racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, and so on. At the end of a tiring day, Black Girl Magic is old-fashioned grit and perseverance.
