Hi Yโ€™all! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฝ

As soon as enthusiasm grew around VP Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee for President, mysogynoir and racist in media accelerated. I spoke with Dr. Heliana Ramirez about the impact of racial trauma, the concept of misogynoir, and its impact on Black women.

  • Misogynoir and its Emotional Impact
  • Impact of Racial Tropes and Trauma
  • Coalition Building and Allyship in the Fight Against Racism and Misogynoir
  • Combatting Misogynoir in Real Time
  • Addressing Harm Reduction and Backlash in Activism
  • Building Genuine Relationships to Support Black Women in the Workplace
  • Somatic Abolitionism and Self-Care Practices

We specifically, highlighted the need to combat workplace abuse against Black women and the importance of active intervention against racism and sexism in the workplace. Heliana stressed the need for genuine relationships, active intervention against racism and sexism, and harm reduction in activism. I hope you enjoy the rest of our conversation!
