A space where survivor voices are honoured, stereotypes dismantled, and injustice challenged. From gender-based violence and misogynoir to power, policy and representation, these reflections amplify overlooked perspectives and explore the stories that shape a more equitable world. This is where my pen pushes back, and my purpose speaks up.

Michelle Obama, Misogynoir and the Dehumanisation of Black Women and Girls

AI generated image viewed from behind, a Black mother stands several steps back from a slightly open bedroom door in a dark hallway. Warm coral light spills gently from the room, revealing only a glimpse of a neatly made bed, a school backpack and a teddy bear, while deep teal shadows surround her as she quietly gathers herself before entering.

Why are Black women and girls so often denied the simple humanity afforded to everyone else? From Michelle Obama to my own daughter, this is a reflection on misogynoir, stereotypes and the hidden filing systems that shape how Black women are seen.
