Why Dope Black Mums?

Dope Black Mums was founded by Nina Malone who wanted to connect and share with other women of colour without the need to explain or appease. It is a digital safe space for black women to navigate motherhood together.  It is a sisterhood and a micro community that strengthens and supports black women from the diaspora to parent from a place of empowerment. This, in turn, supports the wider community.
