10 Powerful Positive Affirmations And Quotes To Add To Your Affirmation Deck

Black woman affirmations and quotes to help African American women

Being a woman has its challenges, but being a black woman has its extra challenges, but that doesn't mean we don't accept those challenges and overcome them. As a black woman, many things are said about us to bring us down. 

We get so many negative words thrown at us daily that you would think we would be on our last leg by now, but that's not what we have planned. A black woman is everything she wants herself to be; if she wants to be different, then so be it. 

We are so wrapped up in a society where being a black woman is often labeled a bad thing. Society gives black women such a hard time and never puts respect on our name, but that's okay because no matter how hard a person tries, they will always respect a black woman.


Remember that black women are a work of art, beauty and intelligence, and many more beautiful things you as a black woman have to see.

There will be some bad days where stuff gets to you more than usual, but that's why you should add these positive affirmations and quotes to your deck when you're having those bad days. No matter what mood you are in or what emotion you are feeling, here are some positive/ daily affirmations and quotes to add to your deck.
