The Ayaba Series: Why We Need Sisterhood

The Ayaba Series: Why We Need Sisterhood

every relationship is an assignment. it was sent to teach us something, maybe even bring our issues to the forefront and give us space to heal. for this reason and so many others, women need sisterhood.

i grew up kind of like an only child, raised by my mom and grandparents.  having what society construes as a “non-traditional” family, i always craved close bonds with friends. i wanted the kind of friendships on display in my favorite babysitter’s club and girl talk books.

it wasn’t until college when i joined an organization dedicated to black sisterhood that i realized i wasn’t searching for friends, but sisters. now i understand the infinite and revolutionary value of organizing and creating spaces for women by women.
