The Naked Truth Project: Women of color share their thoughts on body image after breast cancer

By For The Breast of Us

"WHERE ARE THE BREAST CANCER THRIVERS WHO LOOK LIKE ME?" That's what For the Breast of Us founders Jasmine Souers and Marissa Thomas asked themselves when they were diagnosed with breast cancer at 26 and 35. Not a quick Google search nor a hashtag was available to help them connect to other young survivors of color. In 2020, For the Breast of Us gave #BreastCancerBaddies the opportunity to go #Naked4BC and be the women they once searched for after their breast cancer diagnosis. And more than simply sharing photos of their bodies, these Baddies are sharing the often overlooked aspect of breast cancer journeys: the impact of cancer on their body image and sense of self. It is our hope that women of color affected by breast cancer will be inspired, encouraged and validated as they explore images and personal experiences of these incredible women.
