A Dose of Awareness

As Black women we must own our breast health as much as possible. Part of the reason I created this blog is to increase awareness on breast health, early detection and the importance of mammograms in my community particularly and the greater community at large. I am unapologetic about that and will continue to lift up this cause until it is no longer necessary.

Welcome to Melanin & Pink Ribbons: A Blog for Black Women Fighting and Surviving Breast Cancer. It was born out of my personal journey as a patient not seeing very many images of women who looked like me fighting this disease. So, when I became a survivor, I did something about it. This is a space to learn and become empowered with information so we as a community can thrive into survivorship.
