Being a Black woman in a society that forces us to constantly be “strong” makes it difficult for many Black women who struggle with their mental health. As a Black woman who struggles as well, I believe is is crucial for Black women who struggle with their mental health, and as a result are seen as “lazy”, to feel that there is someone out there who sees them.
DLBG acknowledges this stereotype and is the voice for Black women who’s mental health has deteriorated as a result of societal pressure to make them strong. DLBG provides a safe space for vulnerable conversations and healing.
