Women, girls & gender-diverse people in East Africa face violence, neglect & criminalization. The Wawa Aba Institute builds trauma-informed, community-led leadership to foster healing, resilience & justice, challenging systemic barriers to equity & peace.
Day Two of the 16 Days of Activism reminds us that love should never bring harm.

Today’s Womanist Crush, Robin, lifts that truth with care and courage.

Actions Are Everything!

Too often, we let people call themselves “friends” while their actions say the opposite.

If someone doesn’t support your journey, your business, or your growth it’s okay to let them go.

Choose people who match your effort.

When you don’t know what to do, pause. Be still.
Oprah says if you’re asking everyone “Should I do this?” you don’t yet trust your own answer.
Stillness brings clarity. Your knowing always rises.

Rev. Godfrey Adela reads “I Am Not Your Data” — Abhaya Xaxa’s fierce declaration of identity and dignity.

Abhaya’s words remind us: we are not data points, we are living stories. 💚
