Listen "Journaling and Introspection- WWW.002"
Episode Synopsis
The Word Wise Webb is a series that connects literacy with colorism healing (and related topics). Dr. Sarah L. Webb discusses how reading and writing and vocabulary (#WeeklyWord) apply to colorism healing through practical advice, quick tips, testimonies and stories, and intellectual ideas.
--- In this episode I discuss the benefits of journaling and practicing introspection. Journaling is not just great for introspection, it's also a great way to collect ideas, problem solve, make plans, set goals, and more. This practice has been an important part of my self-care routine. As African Americans, we are still working to overcome stigmas about mental health, therapy, and counseling, so starting a journaling practice can be a great place to start.
--- I launched Colorism Healing to raise critical awareness about #colorism by providing a hub of information and resources and to facilitate solutions and healing through creative and critical work.
--- This initiative is unique because it has always focused on healing, self-care, and reconciliation, especially for black girls, black women, and other girls and women of color.
--- My unpopular opinion, though, is that colorism affects all people regardless of their complexion, race, ethnicity, gender, or class. Therefore, everyone is responsible for helping to address the problem. However, I explain how it effects people quite differently based on those varying factors. Some people disproportionately benefit from this system and others are systemically marginalized. Some are zealous perpetrators while others are unwillingly complicit.
--- As part of this mission, I’ve launched several initiatives, such as the Colorism Healing Writing Contest, and I invite you to explore more via the links below.
