🖤 Who made the rules on what’s “Black enough”? Spoiler: Nobody did.
Gatekeeping Blackness by deciding what’s Black and what’s not? That’s not just divisive—it’s anti-Black. That whole “this is Black, this isn’t” mindset feeds into white supremacist frameworks we need to leave behind. Blackness is diverse, beautiful, and definitely not up for debate.
In this convo, we’re breaking down why these narratives are so harmful and how we can hold space for all expressions of Black identity.

🖤 Let’s get real—why is it that therapy, yoga, or even inner child work sometimes gets labeled as “white people stuff” in our community? 🤔 Like, since when did taking care of your mind and spirit have a race attached to it?
In this convo, we’re unpacking the stigma around personal growth and healing in the Black community. From therapy to inner child work, these are things WE need too. Growth isn’t a trend—it’s a lifestyle, and it’s for all of us.
