Let’s be honest, brown girls have a lot of problems, and we often find solace in other girls who are experiencing the same thing. That’s how BGPP came to be. We are here to build our community, talk about the things we never get a chance to, and interview some badass brown girls. We’ll be talking about money, relationships (even the secret ones!), mental health, and all the other problems brown girls face. Let's end the cycle of guilt & secrets, and let's own our BGP!
