Black Women & Relationships

These are the books I'm already reading for my own research on Black women's mental health and relationships. This session, I'm opening that reading up to a small group instead of doing it alone.

A small room, on purpose.

I kept this small on purpose because I want an actual conversation, not a crowd. Each month's book gets paired with a bit of Black Feminist Thought, the same lens I use in my own research.

This session's theme

Black women and relationships, romantic, familial, friendship. What we inherited, what we're unlearning, what we're building instead.

This is for you if

You'd rather have one real conversation a month than scroll through a hundred posts about it.
