Softly, Softly: The Myth of the Strong Black Woman

  • Joe's Movement Emporium 3309 Bunker Hill Road Mount Rainier, MD 20712 (map)

Softly, Softly Expressions is a powerful conglomerate of artistic mediums: film, ballet production, art exhibition, readings, and fashion collection centering Black women's humanity. It illuminates Black women’s costly, treacherous & seemingly mythic composure as they navigate life. Created by multi-hyphenate artist and Howard University professor, Maria Fenton, it touches on race, gender, suicide prevention, domestic violence, mental health, politics, and more. Softly, Softly is a both a battle cry and love story about the grace, reality, & magic of Black women and their often invisible embattled journey.
