Personal Quotes

It’s a tiny revolution to express yourself fully and be who you want to be, especially when systems tell you that you can’t. I’ve realized how powerful it is for me to just discuss issues with young people and begin conversations.

The most important lesson I’ve learned is to not limit myself. Kids at my age often get intimidated by the idea of adulthood and feel like they have to know exactly who they are and what they want to do with their lives. I’ve realized that it’s okay to take my time figuring it out and exploring different aspects of myself instead of fixating on one idea of who I am.

Black Girl Magic is a radiant revolution against misogynoir – misogyny directed towards Black women and internalized hatred. Black women are subject to so many societal messages that tell them they are not beautiful, smart, or capable. Black Girl Magic is the conscious unraveling of those toxic concepts through self-love and acceptance. It preaches that despite the pressures I face, I glow more than ever before.

I think people discredit teenagers and how wise they can be. Sometimes I meet teenagers who are much wiser than many adults I’ve met, because they haven’t let any insecurities or doubts about themselves get in the way of their thoughts.

It’s easier to say, ‘Don’t care about what anyone thinks,’ than it is to actually not care about what anyone thinks. But, honestly, anything you’re passionate about, that’s what you’ll be the best at.
