More DescriptionWomen face unique challenges in corporate culture, higher education, religion and more. Add blackness to the equation and the challenges grow exponentially. Grappling with the intersection of race and gender in systems where we are the minority and face many disadvantages can be overwhelming. This book recognizes the disparities which exist in certain spaces, but also emphasizes the necessity of introspection and personal accountability to move beyond racism and sexism in America. Boobs represent the plight for gender equity, brown skin, the plight for racial equity. Black women do not have the luxury of divorcing parts of our identity from the whole to advance the greater being. It is the intentional focus on our collective identity which will take us to the next level of success. This book features unique stories and words of encouragement from women in sports, entertainment, religion, corporate culture and higher education.
