    How to survive and thrive from emotional abuse, set boundaries and control your relationship 
    Emotional abuse is a form of violence that does not necessarily involve physical harm, but can be similarly debilitating. 
    This abuse works by chipping away at one’s self-esteem slowly, and most of the time victims do not know that they are going through it. However, statistics state that nearly 60% of young women in the US underwent emotional abuse in a romantic relationship. 
    24% of women who went through this experience never told anyone that they were dealing with abuse. However, an overwhelming 62% told that they are able to leave an abusive relationship because someone educated them and helped them to leave their abusive domestic partnership. 
    You are undergoing emotional abuse if a person behaves in a certain pattern that would make you feel fear, obligation, or guilt. 
    The combination of these negative emotions can be dangerous to one’s mental health and they leave long-lasting effects. 
    Most of the time, perpetrators inflict harm through aggressiveness, denying your needs, and minimizing the harm that they have done. 
    It is also very important to take note that most emotionally abusive relationships lead to physical abuse.

    The Power of Black Excellence -...

    From their founding, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) educated as many as 90 percent of Black college students in the United States. Although many are aware of the significance of HBCUs in expanding Black Americans' educational opportunities, much less attention has been paid to the vital role that they have played in expanding American democracy. 
     
     
     
    In The Power of Black Excellence, Deondra Rose provides an authoritative history of HBCUs and the unique role they have played in shaping American democracy since 1865. Drawing on over six years of deep research, Rose brings into view the historic impact that government support for HBCUs has had on the American political landscape, arguing that they have been essential for not only empowering Black citizens but also reshaping the distribution of political power in the United States. Today, HBCUs remain extremely important, as evidenced by the outsized number of black political leaders—including Kamala Harris—who attended them. Rose stresses that policymakers promote democracy itself when they support HBCUs and their unique approach to postsecondary education, which includes a commitment to helping students develop politically empowering skills, promoting political leadership, and fostering a commitment to service.
