“Stand With Black Women” Drawn on: 9” x 12” Archival Ink 21.5 mil/290 gsm Moab Rag Natural Printed on: 9” x 12” Archival Ink 21.5 mil/290 gsm Moab Rag Natural -will take longer to produce due to size to ensure the best quality- In this world, it is not easy to be a black woman especially a carefree black women over the age of 25 years old with no children and unmarried. Being a carefree Black woman means that you do not have to fit into a specific box to be unapologetically black. I never did fit into a specific box or a specific stereotype. Embracing this for me meant destroying the idea that we can only show one side of ourselves to the world and erasing the stigma of actually being what it is to be a black woman. 🚫 DO NOT REPOST MY WORK WITHOUT TAG/CREDIT. 🟤 Please support the page by dropping a like 👍🏽, comment ⌨️ or follow 👈🏽 @mellyssaangeldiggs .
