Divorce Gauche & Droite | Mia Guisse, Dieyla, Ndakhte Lo | Failed Marriages

Divorce Gauche & Droite | Mia Guisse, Dieyla, Ndakhte Lo | Failed Marriages
Ndakhte Lo, Mia Guisse, Dieyla - what's the common thread?! Ooohh I was mad today. Seeing these stories of Senegalese artists really annoyed me because it highlights such a problem in our community where we underestimate the importance of marriage!!! SO many women go through this type of pressure and scrutiny in the background, and we never hear their stories. I implore everyone watching to think deeply about these topics and reflect on how we can be better going forward. We rush to be married sometimes so much that the divorce comes just as fast. We have to do better, and our society needs to stand up for these injustices. IDK what these ladies might have done wrong in their respective marriages (nobody is as white as snow) but nobody deserves to be mistreated in this manner. SMH.
