Heart disease is the leading cause of death for Black women, and it's not because we don't care about our health.
Only 25% of Black women with high blood pressure have it under control, and Black adults account for over 50% of heart failure hospitalizations among U.S. adults under age 50. Black women of reproductive age have 60% lower blood pressure control rates than White women (60.6% vs. 74.0%).
These disparities are rooted in chronic stress, unequal access to care, and systems that too often dismiss Black women's symptoms. Black health equity means creating conditions where prevention, rest, and high-quality care are truly accessible.
This Black History Month, protecting our hearts is both personal and political.
🖤 Know your numbers

Self-care is more than bubble baths and candles. It’s the everyday ways we care for our minds, bodies, and spirits in the middle of real life. Keeping the Bond begins with how we treat ourselves, especially when our plates feel full.
Real self-care isn’t selfish. It helps us stay steady, present, and connected, so we can show up for ourselves and for the people and communities we care about. Pause and check in with yourself today. What’s one small shift that could support your mental wellness this week?
