Okay, so she's lesbian. Let's get that elephant of irrelevancy out of the room..
Blaque Dahlia is a tour de force, slaughtering the Eastern Seaboard one webisode at a time. I've been following her work for at least a year and a half now and, her evolution has been exponential. In merely viewing DopeFem Productions’ YouTube page you can tell that it all started with a dream that materialized into a feeling that lead to intuitive responses followed.
Call. Answer. Action.
..while that is a story all its own.. ..just wait; there's more…
Blaque Dahlia has had the support of her Wife, Relle, through this Southern Belle Series journey. This couple has practically obliterated the expectations that come up in our Community in regard to the durability and longevity of relationships. Most recently they welcomed their gorgeous baby girl into the world.

..what else could there possibly be?
..let me tell you: when I'd learned that Blaque Dahlia is a survivor of Breast Cancer I fell out of my seat…
It colored her story, to me. She is doing everything I'm certain she was told she could not do. Being close to death, no matter the distance to or from it, is a life altering experience. For anyone! I'm sure she had moments of concern being led to think that there was no point in being with someone, as the chemotherapeutic drugs went though her veins, burning her body. I'm sure there were moments of considering Motherhood may not have been an attainable reality for her. I'm damned sure there were moments where she couldn't get out of the bed during chemo-recovery, too tired to even conceive life after Cancer.
..but, I'll tell you what, though, Dale.. ..in my Hank Hill voice..
At any given time you can see videos saved in her YouYube archive where she chose to focus in on her craft by studying production how-to’s. This is exactly what PhoenixPhire means when we express that surviving is not an option. You can make it through anything. ..but what are you going to do when you come out of being in the fight of your life for your life? We have to overcome obstacles. We have to supersede expectations. We have to choose to thrive. Overcoming your obstacles and choosing to thrive are how we show respect for our existence. Blaque Dahlia isn't allowing anything to hold her back from living the fullest life imaginable, and you shouldn't either.
I don't care if your struggle has been harder or lighter — respect your existence by choosing to thrive. Blaque Dahlia chose to love and be loved. You can hear the Self-Care in how she speaks and you can see it in how she moves; you can see it in how she functions, cognitively. She chose to follow the inclinations and conviction inside of herself with a relentless passion. It’s materialized into content that is shaping facets of society we can't account for. She chose to have a dream, and in the eyes of her Wife and newborn baby girl they are actualized.. ..with so many more dreams unrealized…
So, Zūnzhòng, girl. Respect.
Happy Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
