When I design and teach the psychology of a Black women this book will be included….it helped birth my womanhood

It taught me that love was freedom, motherhood was freedom, my body was freedom, my breath was freedom, and my story—-our story was and is a story of freedom

May she return (to eternal freedom and peace) and May her spirit and words guide us and inspire us to be better than we were yesterday!
