Black women on living unapologetically and authentically--from the bestselling author of
The Sisters Are Alright. Unshackle your authentic self from the expectations and stereotypes of American culture through the 6 pillars of living free as a Black woman.
Tamara Winfrey Harris harnesses her knowledge as a two-time author and storyteller of the Black femme experience and nationally known expert on the intersections of race and gender to deliver a sharp feminist analysis that is illustrated by real-life stories and examples plucked from popular culture and intimate Black woman-to-Black woman truth-telling.
This book is separated into two parts. First, the meaning of liberation is explored and Black women will be guided in creating sustaining practice to mature their well-being along the freedom journey.
In part two, readers are introduced to the 6 pillars of living free as a Black woman:
- Spot the distortions
- Know your truth
- Celebrate the real you
- Understand the cost of liberation
- Practice freedom
- SEE free Black women everywhere
With the bold, astute writing that you have come to expect from Winfrey-Harris,
A Black Woman's Guide to Getting Free urges Black women everywhere to choose themselves, and choose freedom, in a world that would have you chained.
