I’m so proud of you Hauwa!!! This is the same thing that’s stopping me from creating content. I keep telling myself it’s because I’m lazy but i decided to tell myself the truth and the truth is that I don’t want people that don’t know me to talk about me. Being a people pleaser that’s trying to find her footing, I don’t know if I can take it.
I can relate. Please go ahead and do it, at the end of the day what they think doesn't matter; you'd also be glad that you started. We will be here rooting for you.
These Older Women and Men don’t know that what they say can make or mar someone. I Love you hauwa and thank you for showing us your face. We love you so much. Pls don’t stop, who approval help. 💜
An older friend once shared a really insightful thought that's stayed with me: 'Until you've faced the firestorm of online criticism, you haven't truly arrived in that space.' So I completely agree with what that successful woman said to you, I'd also like to say the same thing, "Congratulations Hauwa!".
Reading this newsletter felt like someone has ratting me out to you! I've always wanted to make videos, but I've been so self-conscious about the sound of my voice and appearance on camera. I've even recorded some videos, but fear always held me back. I guess I was too worried about what others would think. Well, this is me saying "God punish their approval!
I have missed your substack, Hauwa! Thank you so much for this! For the record, I dragged every hate tweet against you. 🌚 You are doing so well! This is a loud reminder for me to put myself out there more than I already am. For what it’s worth, I love your skin tone and as someone who grew up feeling insecure because due to genetics, she has multiple colors on her skin, I want to say that your skin is beautiful.
This is such a beautiful and knowing you in secondary school makes it even more relatable. I’m so proud of you growth and people will have their opinion regardless, you might as well do what gives you joy at least that way you aren’t losing on both ends.
Hello hauwa. I’m so sort you had to go through all that. I saw it on Twitter and I was mortified. Really sorry again that I did nothing. Didn’t stand up for you, didn’t say anything, just blocked them and lived on while you had to deal with them. I hope you’re fine now.
I’ve been dealing with rapid gain and I can’t help it. You know, PCOS. And I’ve gotten comments about my weight, how I should stop eating and start dieting, and one relative even asked to get married quickly because of how big I am, so that I can have my kids at once and work on losing the weight. It’s been hard, but I am learning to live and love my body again.
It's like you said“God punish approval”, Seeing all the tweets just mad me realize how much people can go to hate on other people, but we'll always be here and we'll always keep loving and supporting you. I'm so proud of how far you've come and puh-lease Black is Beautiful.
Really well said!! I am sorry about the experiences you had to go through, but you sharing your story is one step closer to decolonizing so the next generation doesn't have to go through that! You really inspired to be brave and put myself out there, thank you so much for sharing!

I loved that she shared her story to inspire.
See the comments online I knew Hauwa was above that and I am happy she spoke about it to inspire others.

Is the 'ugly' in the room with us? Gosh, I really can't understand humans sometimes. So glad that you spare no time for those losers.
