Knowing Ashari
Ashari reminds herself and states that...
I am black girl magic!
I am a survivor and a victor
Ashari asks and responds...
What does a sexual assault survivor/victor truly look like?
I bet I never crossed your mind
Statistics say...
"1 in 5 women and 1 in 71 men will be raped at some point in their lives"- @NSVRC
Ashari responds...
My experiences do not define me because ...
I am changing my narrative!
I will NOT sit in shame, defeat, guilt, anger, vengeance,
nor sadness.
those experiences were just expected storms that God has been preparing me for my entire life which made way for a rebuilding. I am renewed by the Lord my God!
I am perfect in the LORD :)
