UsWeMe
'Where neurodiversity and neuroinclusion embraces African descendant cultures'
Welcome to UsWeMe — a peer-led community co-founded with Dr Shungu H. M’gadzah, dedicated to uplifting neurodivergent African-descendent and mixed-heritage women. We’re here to share, connect, and celebrate rich and often overlooked narratives.
Who We Are
A safe, inclusive space for Black and dual-heritage women with all types of neurodifferences, including:
ADHD
Autism
Dyslexia
Dyspraxia
Dyscalculia
Dysgraphia
Tourette’s
What’s Your Story?
We invite you to share experiences that matter:
Your thoughts, emotions, and perspectives
Everyday realities: misunderstandings, setbacks, wins
Unique challenges: isolation, belonging, vulnerability
Moments of discovery, resilience, success
Neurodiversity assessments often miss the strengths inherent in our experiences. Here, we’ll unpack these strengths, explore challenges, and deepen understanding of both identity and neurodivergent perspectives in a culturally affirming environment.
