*trigger warning: r*pe and sexual ab*se*
Hey Beautiful People! Welcome to the very first episode of the Candidly, Caitlyn Podcast.
In this episode I introduce myself and why I believe this podcast is so important. We will also explore the history of sexualization of Black women in the United States and discuss some of the following questions:
- How have stereotypes influenced the ways in which society views black women and girls' sexuality?
- How does the sexualization of black girls push them into the prison complex and lead to increased rates of sexual assault and abuse?
- Why is it important to empower women and girls? even sexually?
