Details

An unambiguous black woman's deciphering of coded language and hidden agendas. Sharing my consciousness and advice on known or current topics, trends, and cultural phenomenon. I invite you to listen to someone that can empathize and relate to you. I’m also here to correct falsehoods and misconceptions about the stereotypical black female identity by challenging underrated, unaddressed, and often ignored perspectives and ideas relating to black women and girls. My gift to my listeners is to use these gems as talking points when it applies to those who harm, mock, or gaslight black women.

"Keep your dignity, ladies, especially black women. And try to find out as much as you can, because I tend to feel like because people know that black women are in a vulnerable state, in a vulnerable group, they think that we will just accept anything. And this is not just from men outside of the so-called black community, but this is from men within the so-called black community." - Cassundra. Stay vigilant, vet, and verify everyone.

Nothing should be wrong with getting darker!

Nothing should be wrong with getting darker!

Episode:16

Title: Nothing should be wrong with getting darker.

Subtitle: Black women should sun or tan regularly.

Final Show Link: https://anchor.fm/gemdroplet

In this episode of Gem Droplet...

" A lot of my family members specifically would tell me not to go out in the sun for too long.  There is a lot of miseducation on sun exposure, especially for black women and girls, people with deeper complexions and melanin. The sun is not harmful to most of us who have  Eumelanin and have richer, deeper skin tones. The people who get harmed by the sun are people who have little to no Eumelanin and fair complected people. there's a stigma around being in the sun for too long as a black person in general, specifically black girls.  If we're darker we're associated with being masculine." - Cassundra.

Title: Calling women, girls, and young ladies 'Female' solely is wrong.

Subtitle:

Final Show Link: https://anchor.fm/gemdroplet

In this episode of Gem Droplet,

I explain why calling women and girls 'Females' solely and continuously is wrong. The terminology strips us of our dignity, birthright, and individual full spectrum identities. I explain how cringe-worthy and incel -ISH 'females' sounds. Just because you have serial killer level hatred and bitterness in your heart for women, doesn't mean you have to infect others and spread it! We are not asking for worship but basic level human reference and decency.
