Languages : en

Book Description
In this analysis of social history, examine the complex lineage of America's oppression of Black companionship.According to the 2010 US census, more than seventy percent of Black women in America are unmarried. Black Women, Black Love reveals how four centuries of laws, policies, and customs have created that crisis.Dianne Stewart begins in the colonial era, when slave owners denied Blacks the right to marry, divided families, and, in many cases, raped enslaved women and girls. Later, during Reconstruction and the ensuing decades, violence split up couples again as millions embarked on the Great Migration north, where the welfare system mandated that women remain single in order to receive government support. And no institution has forbidden Black love as effectively as the prison-industrial complex, which removes Black men en masse from the pool of marriageable partners.Prodigiously researched and deeply felt, Black Women, Black Love reveals how white supremacy has systematically broken the heart of Black America, and it proposes strategies for dismantling the structural forces that have plagued Black love and marriage for centuries.

Black Girl In Love (with Herself)
Author: Trey Anthony

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Speaker, writer, and producer Trey Anthony breaks it down, giving black women a relatable voice and personalized "keeping it real" to-do list on how to practice self-love and self-care. Therapy is not just for white women-no matter what your momma told you! After a lifetime of never truly relating to the personal development experts because of the color of her skin, Trey Anthony has written the book she needed to read as a black woman trying to navigate a world filled with unique challenges that often acts like she doesn't exist. On the outside Trey Anthony was the overachieving, reliable, and strong black woman she was raised to be, but on the inside the pressure of sacrificing her own needs to please others was building. When her grandmother and mother raised her strong, they also unknowingly taught her that self-love and expressing emotions were weak, creating an unhealthy dynamic that had Trey facing burnout and rock bottom. In Black Girl in Love (with Herself), Trey breaks down the lessons and tools that she used to heal her life, including how to: Set clear and healthy boundaries-even with the people who raised you Quit being the family ATM Sort out who is a real friend, and who is just there for parties and gossip Confront microaggressions at work without missing a beat Forget who black women are "supposed" to be And fall in love with yourself!

Beautiful Power
Author: Brian Heat
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780692597002
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Beautiful Power: A Love Letter to Black Women is a celebration of who you are, who you desire to become, and how to help you get there. Traveling my own passionate journey of trial and error, while searching for life's meaning and the manifestation of my own purpose, I was compelled to address the steady attack on the persona and intelligence of Black women. The direct and subliminal messages by the media, our community, and, sadly, ourselves would like us to believe that Black women can be summed up as: baby mommas, foolish, money hungry, combative or void of compassion, just to name a few. In this book, I seek to dismantle these stereotypes and stimulate an honest conversation about the need for Black women to embrace their inner beauty, shake off the negative labels attached by the media, stop the abuse of self and others, and to practice loving. It is only through this process that you can begin to heal, grow, and positively influence all those that cross your path as you move closer to your own sense of personal fulfillment and happiness.
