Episode 11 - African Melanin Queens: Why black women are unmarried and single mothers

Author: Goddess Asha Mariama August 11, 2024 Duration: 2:29:47
In this video, I’m gonna be discussing why black women are unmarried and single. We’re gonna have to go all the way back to elementary school to have this conversation. Because this isn’t just about adult relationships we also got a start with elementary and teenage relationships. Because that’s where it all begins. There were girls that were having sex at the age of nine and eight years old with Young boys. And then you have young girls that are being molested by a family member, or there, mommy or daddy‘s girlfriend, wife, boyfriend, or husband. This particular topic is not as simple as people on these panels on different platforms are saying. Because you’re gonna have to go back to childhood to basically figure all of this out. You even have to go back as far as slavery to figure this out and you may even have to even further back to the culture that is of Africa to figure that out, so we’re gonna pretty much start from the beginning when it comes to our actual culture that is of African culture. And then we’re gonna move to the slavery culture, and then we’re gonna go into The segregation in modern civilization culture. I think if we look at this in those different type of sections, then we might be able to figure out why this is happening.

Hosted by Goddess Asha Mariama, African Melanin Queens is a space dedicated to the affirmation and holistic elevation of Black women. This podcast directly confronts the damaging narratives that suggest independent women, single mothers, or those deemed average or unattractive by societal standards are not worthy of high-value partnerships or self-love. Each episode serves as a counter-narrative, weaving together discussions on culture, mental fortitude, and physical well-being to reinforce a core truth: you are inherently enough. The conversation extends beyond mere encouragement, delving into practical education and self-improvement strategies that honor the full spectrum of the Black female experience. Listeners will find a blend of personal reflection, cultural analysis, and actionable advice on health and fitness, all framed within a context of societal awareness. It’s a gathering for those seeking to reclaim their narrative and find strength in community. Tune in for honest dialogue that celebrates beauty in all its forms-flaws, imperfections, and past mistakes included-while building a foundation for unshakable confidence and continued growth. This is where the journey back to self, in all its powerful and multifaceted glory, truly begins.
