STUDY - More Than Half Of Black Girls Are Sexually Assaulted:

Sixty percent of black girls have experienced sexual abuse at the hands of black men before reaching the age of 18, according to an ongoing study conducted by Black Women’s Blueprint.

More than 300 black women nationwide participated in the study and 700 more are being sought to take in the survey by March 2012.

Farah Tanis, Co-Founder of the New York-based organization and co-author of the study, says the issue of domestic and sexual abuse in the black community is rarely discussed and that a sixty percent rate should be a wake-up call to black women.

“A similar study which was conducted by The Black Women’s Health Imperative seven years ago found that that number was about 40 percent,” Tanis says. “So that means there is an increase and we need to stop neglecting that issue.”

So the next black man that comes flapping his mouth about how black women don’t know how to treat a black man? I’m going to introduce his front teeth to my fist.

Holy crap. I want to know more about these statistics and how we can help adjust the abusive aspects of their culture so fewer women have to experience this

“and how we can help adjust the abusive aspects of their culture”

“and how we can help adjust the abusive aspects of their culture”

“and how we can help adjust the abusive aspects of their culture”
