Isolation and social distancing over the summer finally gave Solange Hackshaw the time she needed to create a blog and a podcast delving into the experiences she and other BIPOC (Black, indigenous, people of color) women and queer identifying individuals regularly grapple with. She started writing and reaching out to peers to help her develop her platform.
“I really wanted to create a space for, essentially, marginalized people—especially Black and brown women and queer identifying individuals—where…we don’t need to filter certain topics, like mental health, sexual health, racism, implicit biases,” Hackshaw (COM’21) says. “A lot of these topics are quite personal to me, but they’re also personal to others.”
