So, What’s The Antidote To This Racial Battle Fatigue We’re Feeling?
I believe that focusing on habit making can help to overcome racial battle fatigue. Let me explain. Very early in the pandemic, quarantine trapped me in a vicious cycle of repetitiveness.

What’s Love Got To Do With Black Millennials?
Black millennials are a precarious group of individuals. We printed out MapQuest directions, had to type the 4 and 6 key on a phone five times to spell “going” when we texted our friends (on a Razr if we were lucky), and now we’re shouldering more loan debt than any generation before us.

Self-Help Books Are Missing The Mark With Black Millennials
I have an unexplainable love for self-help books. I’m unsure if it’s because of the excitement of following an author through their most difficult point in their life or how eloquently they seem to make hardship sound. Regardless, I would rather pick up a self-help book than any fictional book to relax. Authors who venture […] More

We Need To Talk About Colon Cancer
Like many others in our community, I am mourning the death of Chadwick Boseman. It’s a very strange feeling to mourn the death of someone who you did not know but feel like could have easily been an older cousin, an uncle, or a brother to you in another lifetime. His tragic death from colon […] More

How To Create The Talk As A Black Millennial
When talking about sex and relationships, my friends and I have a good ol’ time laughing about the ways that our parents did (or did not) have “The Talk” with us. Some of us sat awkwardly in our chairs and just prayed and prayed that the moment would be over. For others, the talk was […] More

My pediatrician has been in my life since I made my grand entrance into this world. In short, that’s my sis. She’s the person who has counseled me through the awkward puberty stages all the way into my first few years of college. But, then I turned 20 and I was told that I had […] More

As black millennial women, there are a few things that make our day: moisturized skin, laid edges, seeing another Black woman win, and of course, a good word.
