Mascara Dialogues was created in order to start ongoing, sometimes intergenerational discussions with OUR girls about life, self-esteem, culture, and the issues that they are currently dealing with. The idea for Mascara Dialogues started after hearing ‘Mascara’ a satirical song by artist Jazmine Sullivan. The song outlines the way in which young girls AND women define themselves by the material as

sets and male attention that they are able to gain using their bodies and looks. When OUR girls are lacking direction it is much easier for them to lose themselves in the high-risk dealings of this society. Growth requires change and OUR girls are facing some major challenges in our changing world. They are dealing with a host of issues with less adult contact and guidance than ever. Mascara Dialogue events/workshops are safe spaces where young girls can talk about these issues with their peers and trustworthy adults who understand how important it is for their voices to be heard.

Affirm for yourself that: You are beautiful. You are strong. You are intelligent. Your voices, bodies, lives, and dreams matter. Once you affirm that and TRULY believe that for yourself, you are absolutely unstoppable! How you see yourself will be a direct reflection of the people you surround yourself with. When you are empowered as an individual you can then unite with other empowered girls and make stuff happen. There is something going on in your school, your community, or your home that you do not like, but have no idea how to change it. That's where sisterhood comes in. You are able to accomplish so much more together!

Reminder: Building sisterhood starts with building trust amongst one another!
