Because conversations about Black girls should have black girls in them.
Too often, conversations about Black girls happen without Black girls in the room. This summer, we are changing that with The Let Black Girls Live summer socials!
Created and led by girls in Save Girls on F.Y.E.R.'s Liberation Academy, this four-part community conversation series centers the voices, experiences, and leadership of Black and brown girls ages 12 and up. Each session blends real dialogue with a Summer Social atmosphere — complete with a live DJ, games, snacks, and space to connect — creating a space that feels both joyful and real, where girls can show up fully as themselves
Through honest dialogue, shared language, and real-life storytelling, each conversation creates a brave, affirming space where Black girls speak for themselves — about safety, identity, mental health, education, representation, and the futures they deserve.
Across four sessions, girls and community members will explore what it means to feel truly seen, safe, and supported; examine how race and gender shape the everyday realities of Black girls; celebrate the mentors, pathways, and possibilities ahead; and honor the joy, culture, and brilliance that Black girlhood holds — all within an environment that feels alive with music, energy, and community.
The Black Girl Summer Social Series is open to Black and brown girls and young women, parents, caregivers, families, educators, community members, and allies who are ready to listen, learn, and actively support environments where Black and brown girls are affirmed, celebrated, and empowered to live both gently and boldly on their own terms.
