3: Let's Discuss Misogynoir

Black Woman In Bloom

In this episode we’re going to talk about intellectual wellness and learn a bit about misogynoir. This is inspired by an episode of the Carefree and Black Diaries which is hosted by Shaakira White. In October of 2019 she did a series during the month of October which she called Blacktober. During that time she highlighted various topics that affect the Black community and one of the topics she covered was misogynoir. When I heard Shaakira introduce this topic I was instantly intrigued. Since that time I've been reading about the topic itself, as well as, some of the conversations and discussions that have taken place since the term was first introduced. Right now some of us are still under Stay-At-Home orders and practicing social distancing. However, we know that as humans we are hardwired for connection. Many of us are meeting that need for connection by having regular phone calls or video chats with our friends and family members. Engaging in discussions and conversations, as well as, learning new topics are an integral part of enhancing our intellectual wellness.

In this episode we’ll discuss:

• Intellectual wellness
• Misogynoir
• Examples of misogynoir
• Ways to heal from the effects of misogynoir
