S.O.S. PROJECT "SAVE OUR SISTERS"
Empowering girls and women to live healthy safe and sustainable lives
Parents Literacy & Leadership Project
Helping Leaders And Parents Lead Like A Champ
The MOMS In Tech Literacy & Leadership Initiative develops state-of-the-art programs combining creativity, connection, and technology to introduce STEM for exploration and media literacy as a way of prevention and intervention. The media and technology based platform are heavily distributing hyper sexualized content to women and girls - especially in the Black and urban communities. As a result, young women are especially vulnerable to lower self-esteem as well as the damage caused by inappropriate behaviors. Additionally, misleading messages about their place in society, career choices, and negative peer pressures lead Black women and girls to a lower quality of life and detrimental gateways. Our objective is to intervene, by introducing them to broader employment options, resources media & STEM literacy along with leadership to help their personal and professional development, while encouraging them to use technology and media productively and safely.

Our Mission
Giving Girls And Moms Healthier & Safer Choices In Order For Them To Thrive. Let us change the narrative and bring balance to what is being presented to vulnerable populations of girls and young moms who are at risk of falling through the cracks because of peer influence, lack of knowledge, and lack of exposure. They often model bad behavior after negative images of themselves they see through daily doses of popular social media, and marketing messages. We want to help mothers, leaders and their children come together and build community.

QUEEN I Am – A Product of Her Museum ; Her legacy never forgotten ; Her ability to stand in indigenous and values
According to the Bandura Doll experiment, they are now more vulnerable and inspired to model after this risky behavior. This can result into intergenerational dysfunction and environmental issues that are detrimental. There is a massive distribution of black females who are negatively depicted in media and urban neighborhoods. This is a gateway to environmental issues for black families and urban females who are modeling after this risky behavior. Systematic racisms has impacted populations of wise role models who exhibit indigenous values and are positive role models, by making it harder for them to exist and be more present to share knowledge and wisdom.
Solution
Her Museum presents QUEEN I AM, an innovative program to inspire more urban women and girls in their social emotional development, prioritizing the vulnerable populations impacted by the massive distribution of glorified at risk behavior, negative depiction in the media, peer influence and lack of exposure and knowledge. It will also educate the communities on the journeys, historical legacies and innovative contributions of indigenous women from Africa and in Hip Hop of yesterday today and tomorrow. The campaign includes a series of workshops, creative expressions, performances, discussion forums, recruitments exhibits and talks hosted by The Legendary Dr. Suga-T Stevens in collaboration with others.
We hope to educate and inspire African- American and urban women and girls and expose them to safe career pathways, leadership values, wisdom, better health and successful life skills that can keep them safe and help them establish boundaries and make better decisions. We seek to help debunk intergenerational dysfunction and environmental issues within families and communities, while empowering girls and women with the tools and insight to thrive and not just survive.

Giving Girls And Women Healthier & Safer Choices In Order For Them To Thrive
There are not enough positive influential role models presented in media that targets black and urban females. Black and urban females are highly exposed to media, and negative peer influence that glorifies risky behavior, especially in Hip Hop. The lack of exposure to more positive role models, wisdom and realistic career pathways is a gateway to a down spiral of their lives and mentality. For decades, much of American media and society have viewed African American women negatively. Several studies have shown that African American females feel that they are depicted negatively by the media. The SOS seeks to bring balance to what is being presented to vulnerable populations of girls and young women who are at risk of falling through the cracks. They model after what they see through daily consumption.
