BGM x Chakrubs: An Ode To Sensual Agency - Event Recap

An Ode To Sensual Agency

On December 2nd, Chakrubs held a panel discussion and community engagement in Brooklyn in collaboration with collective Black Girl Magik.

~ It is the assertion of sexual power, alongside a period of recovery. It is a Black woman finding strength in her sensuality and grounding autonomy in the realms of pleasure and desire. It is the rejection of standards set on our ancestors and the distinction between agency and objectification. ~

Attendees were able to shop an exclusive Chakrubs sale and take home goodie bags featuring products from Foria Wellness, Hara the Label, Fat and the Moon, OrganiCup and The Bloomi.

PANEL HOST: Brittany Josephina, Director of HR at BGM
