Violence, hyper-sexualized messages in movies as well as music and low self esteem are just a few of the issues our young black girls must cope with on a daily basis. We often tell our girls to behave like young women yet few adults feel responsible for guiding them on the path to womanhood. On this Wednesday's edition of Mind Magick w/ Lady Dee we will be joined by La'Keisha Gray-Sewell, founder of Girls Like Me Project Inc., as she shares 5 key things we must do for Black urban girls so they can realize their values, break barriers , transform their community, and be game changers.
