About Black Girl Nerds:

Black Girl Nerds is a place for women of color with various eccentricities to express themselves freely and embrace who they are. This is not a site exclusively for Black women. It’s for ALL women who are just as nerdy as we are and the men who love and appreciate us.

I really love positive representation of us on TV and in the movies too. I will keep an eye on this show.
