Nina Dafe: Changing The Narrative For Christian Women One Bible Story At A Time Posted on April 26, 2018April 25, 2018 By Dangerous Lee How Will I Create Black History in 2018? I have always had a burden for women. You see, although I was born and raised in London (UK), I am of Nigerian descent. I also grew up within an extremely Christian community, making me acutely aware of the weight of patriarchy. I saw it’s impact through the fact that my grandmother was denied an education (whilst growing up in Nigeria) simply because she was female, restricting her options and quality of life. I saw it’s impact through growing up witnessing multiple (other female) role models either forfeit their dreams, stay in abusive relationships or operate from a place of low self-worth due to the religious and cultural traditions that entrapped them. The Woman In The Mirror So, in answer to the question of how I will be creating Black history in 2018, I will start with myself. I will continue to push against falling victim to projected social norms by comparing these notions to what the Bible has to say about topics such as women and womanhood (particularly since it was this that I typically saw weaponized against us). I will then continue to change the narrative for Christian women – one Bible story at a time – to inspire them to speak up, step out and shine via: My website (FarAboveRubiesCollection.com) My new YouTube channel (home of The Far Above Rubies Collection Video Podcast) where I share interviews with amazing female leaders and experts who are smashing glass ceilings and kicking down doors My mentoring programs (Stuck to Savvy and Shift!) As well as expert features on platforms such as the ones pictured below where I draw on my special interest in feminism, womanism and female empowerment to dismantle the mindsets that keep women from enjoying the same opportunities and human rights as their male counterparts.
