60 Percent of Black Females Are Sexually Abused Before They Turn 18

[Doobie Doo]

Sixty percent of Black women in an ongoing study reported they had been sexually assaulted by a Black man before they turned 18, according researchers at Black Women’s Blueprint.



Nationally, more than 300 women were surveyed in the study, and the organization hopes to survey a total of 700 women by March 2012. The group will announce its full findings at that time.



According to Farah Tanis, co-Founder of the New York-based organization and co-author of the study, domestic and sexual abuse in the Black community often goes ignored, and the problem is only getting worse.

Ridiculous study. As ridiculous as the 1 in 4 women on college campuses being sexually assaulted nonsense.

lmao nikkas threw this shyt to the bushes in minutes

While I believe sexual abuse is a problem...this is definitely racialized propaganda. What counts as sexual abuse, how were questions asked and how did the researchers pick people surveyed? Have they done any similar studies on other races or just black people?

20% of black men were sexually abused by black women who held positions of authority over them.
I can whip up a receipt right fast, too. Just like these HOES.

 

[Knuckles Red]

Of course so many of you are going out of your way to discount the experiences of black women, and the abuse that they endure at the hands of black men. These statistics are disgusting. We have to do better as a community.
