100 Moments of Black Girl Love
The Dear Black Women Circles.
A meeting place for Black women from all walks of life. An oasis we created to rest, restore and rejuvenate. Starting in late 2016, traveling from Brooklyn to Detroit, our Circles have drawn 1,000’s of Black women to Dear Black Women.
It has been my honor to do this work.
To the Black women who hosted and attended our Circles, I thank you. Your commitment to affirm yourself in chorus with other Black women sounded a loving harmony that resonates. Still.
To the Brandi Keeler, Dear Black Women’s first ever DBW trained facilitator, thank you for being a phenomenal Circle leader, thought partner and a bada** ”chocolate-covered alien”. Your expansive love for us and expertise have touched the lives of so many Black women.
This photo essay is a gift of gratitude, featuring 100 moments from our Circles — captured by Cydni Elledge, Dani B., and Ifeyinwa Arinze — with special commentary from Circle attendees. May these moments remind us that when we share love and affirmation in community, starting first with our individual selves, we are powerful.
Until next time,
Flo, Dear Black Women Founder
