#Defendingblackwomanhood: The Poetic Intensities Of Womanology

In the age of hashtags, poet Davonte' Javon tells some eternal truths about society's need to cripple black women to prevent them from spreading their wings. His work offers harsh lessons about racism and sexism but also inspires women to rise above the hate and let themselves shine. In #DefendingBlackwomanhood, Javon confronts the troubles he believes are plaguing the urban community. He constantly sees tragedies like teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, and harmful double standards. Women aren't often given the support needed during difficult trials. It is frustrating and tiring for them to work against a society that constantly tells them that they are worthless. At a certain point, it can be too much to handle. Javon doesn't believe anything society tells him. He loudly proclaims the incredible strength and power women possess. They have the ability to change their own lives. They just have to believe that they can. Whether you are a woman who understands this never-ending struggle or a man looking for ways to support his partner without taking away her agency, Javon can help you reach your full potential. Javon's work soothes and strengthens. He shows you how to find, appreciate, and use your unique voice.
