Black Girls Smile Inc. is hosting a revolutionary three-day virtual event, the “Black Girls are Magic” conference. It's a platform dedicated to helping Black women and girls gain the mental health support they need. Normani, an Atlanta-born, Houston-raised singer, has been invited to be a guest speaker.
The conference aims to break barriers and build resilience in terms of mental health and wellbeing. There will be workshops and conversations that focus on how Black girls and women drive culture and how to create specialized mental health plans.
Black Girls Smile Inc. was founded in 2012 to address the issues that are often overlooked when it comes to this demographic. The conference will work to empower attendees with the tools and resources they need for self-love and encouragement. There will also be information for parents and caretakers on how to navigate mental health awareness and support the younger people in their life.
In a statement to 11Alive News, one of the event organizers shared, “When you approach mental health and center black girls, women and gender-expansive youth, who are some of the most marginalized folks within this space, everyone can benefit from that knowledge as well.”
Normani is an excellent example of this. She recently shared a tweet with her fans in August that spoke of the “real life sh-t” going on in her life, as she was being criticized for her dedication to her career.
At the conference, Normani will be a panelist in the “Curating Your Mental Wellness” workshop. She will use her own experiences to be a positive influence for those on their mental health journeys. She will provide insight on how to maintain one’s wellbeing despite detractors.
The event will be held from July 17-19, with the RSVPs free and open to everyone. If you’d like to attend, there is still time to sign up.
Black Girls Smile Inc. is making a powerful statement with this conference. It’s a great opportunity for Black women and girls to gain the mental health support they need and be empowered with the tools and resources necessary to sustain self-love and encouragement. Don’t miss out on this amazing event.
