As the Hot Girl Summer continues, Breast cancer activist and survivor, Ericka Hart, has posted a self-exam tutorial to the tune of Meg The Stallion's single Big Ole Freak.
Breast cancer survivor, model, writer and long-time sex health educator Ericka Hart took to Instagram this week to demonstrate an important hot girl survival skill — breast self-exams.
Her caption reads, “I found out I had breast cancer after doing self-exams since I was 13. I only noticed something felt suspicious because I had been doing them for so long.” She found a lump and was diagnosed by the age of 28. According to the National Cancer Institute, ”African American women are much more likely than white women to die of breast cancer,” so it is especially powerful for Hart to be apart of the push for awareness. Last year, Ericka told Yahoo that many breast cancer-related commercials tend to center white women, but that"breast cancer can happen to anybody, so you want to be seen in advocacy campaigns,” regarding media representation.
