Review Quotes: A significant and amazing collection of essays, stories, and poems illuminating the stereotypes, stigmas, and racism affecting black women. Exploring mental health needs, the book triumphantly empowers individual and collective voices. Reading this book is an emotional journey demonstrating how through ancestry, spirituality, and sensuality black women's bodies can be reclaimed, their self-worth upheld. Hearing our sister's voices reminds us that black women are capable of balancing both strength and vulnerability and healing to build a life of more energy, love, and joy.
