Aggies blog about the cultural representation of Black women and the literature they produce. We center the lived experience of the Black woman as represented in literature and the terms and conditions on which she projects her own agency amidst society’s denial of it. We aim to use this place as a site of valuable information, and a space to challenge traditional paradigms about the Black woman’s identity and experience.

Self-Exploration
In class on Wednesday we talked about self-exploration and how black women learn from experience. I agree. I myself being young black woman have learned a lot about myself through the things that i have experienced while in college. Some things that I have learned about myself are that I have a passion for African American culture, I love helping people even when I don't know how to help myself. I also learnef to speak up for myself and say something when I am not being treated how i should. I asked my mother and my grandmother how and when they found who they truly were and they both said that they learned about themselves through the situations they experienced and the people they surrounded themselves with abd how they handled certain things.
