🔥 Soulful Affirmations Rooted in Sacred Love of Black Women
-
I will not call oppression “a difference of opinion.” My spirit is too mighty to shrink to that small.
-
Love is not love when it asks me to deny my own existence rooted in divinely created love and reality. My love is strong, but so is my boundary.
-
I rise each day with the certainty that my humanity is not negotiable.
-
Where others build walls of hatred, I build altars of truth. My voice is my offering.
-
I am not here to beg for belonging. I belong because I am.
-
Disagreement ends where my dignity begins. The line is drawn in my soul, and it cannot be erased.
-
To live in my truth is to honor every ancestor who refused to bow, every child yet to be born who deserves to stand tall.
-
My love is fierce—it heals, it nurtures, it builds. But it will never coddle cruelty or embrace erasure.
-
When they call my survival “controversial,” I answer with thunder: My existence is not up for debate.
-
I walk with rhythm, I breathe with grace, I move with the certainty that justice has always been the most soulful groove.
-
I am not obligated to smile at the hand that strikes me. My joy is reserved for those who honor my being. Because it must be mutual, you understand.
-
Love without justice is counterfeit. I walk only with the real thing.
-
I do not confuse silence with peace. My voice is peace, my truth is peace, my freedom is peace.
-
They may try to name me “angry,” “bitter,” or “difficult,” but my name is carved in stone: Survivor, Dreamer, Child of God.
-
My spirit will not bend to make oppression comfortable. My song will not soften to make hatred palatable.
-
I know this: the earth has been turning on the power of people who refused to disappear. I am one of them.
