Normalize telling boys the stories of what women in the family went through. Boys seem to hear
"grandma makes the best turkey"
while daughters hear
"grandma was married at 14."
Tell the boys the cost of their favorite meals, too.
Or when a non-black woman posts a hair video & the comments like: “thank you for taking care of my bundles” or “don’t fall asleep around me ✂️”. Makes me sick.
