As Black History Month comes to a close, the conversations must continue.

Black feminist history and thought remain essential to understanding how racism and sexism intersect, shaping Black survivors’ experiences of domestic abuse and sexual violence.

This understanding must inform support services today, helping to address inequalities and ensure support is accessible, inclusive and responsive to Black survivors’ needs.

Post-separation abuse can take many forms.

Repeated unwanted messages, threats, using children to maintain control, or making someone feel like they’re never truly free from their ex-partner. At its core, it’s about continuing to exert power and control after a relationship has ended.

The relationship may be over, but the abuse doesn’t always stop.

Black feminist history offers an important lens through which to understand domestic abuse and the barriers Black women face when seeking support.

Whose experiences are heard when we talk about domestic abuse? Who is believed, who receives support, and whose experiences are overlooked?

These are questions we must continue to ask to challenge inequality and ensure every survivor is heard and supported.

University should feel full of possibilities, but control can make your world feel smaller.

Have you been told “just skip class to be with me” or “you can’t wear that”?

Controlling behaviour can sometimes be difficult to recognise, especially when you’ve just moved away from your family, friends and support networks for the first time.

If someone is making decisions about where you go, who you see, what you wear or how you spend your time, these can be signs of control.

If your world keeps getting smaller, it might not be love.
Young people aged 16–24 are at increased risk of experiencing domestic abuse.

If you’re a university student and something in your relationship doesn’t feel right, our short quiz can help you reflect on your situation and recognise some of the warning signs.

This Black History Month, we’re exploring Black feminist history and its role in shaping support for survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence.
