Book Description
You already have all you need to step into the fullness of your power. Each of us has traumas, triggers, and painful experiences that have shaped our existence in this world. We carry these burdens with us as we navigate the realities of our lives. Learning to embody the truth of imago Dei is our catalyst for healing. We are each made in the image of God, and the Spirit of God lives within us. Therefore, we are allowed to listen to our Spirit. We are invited to develop our own Divine intuition, and we are empowered to trust our inner voice. We don't need anyone else's permission to navigate our life and faith, except our own. With the powerful voice of a woman, pastor, mother, and advocate, Rev. Aurelia Dávila Pratt gives us the compassionate nudge and tools we need to access our inner authority. By stepping out of harmful belief systems informed by white supremacy and scarcity, we can step into healthy paradigms of abundance, liberation, and power. A Brown Girl's Epiphany is a love letter to all of us in need of guidance on our journey. Honest, vulnerable, and humble, Pratt imagines a world where the walking wounded become the fully healed and liberated, where our inner work becomes the starting point for creating heaven on earth.

Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE • A “boisterous and infectious debut novel” (The Guardian) about a group of friends and their immigrant families from Queens, New York—a tenderly observed, fiercely poetic love letter to a modern generation of brown girls. “An acute study of those tender moments of becoming, this is an ode to girlhood, inheritance, and the good trouble the body yields.”—Raven Leilani, author of Luster FINALIST: The New American Voices Award, The Carol Shields Prize for Fiction, The VCU Cabell First Novelist Award, The New American Voices Award, The Center for Fiction First Novel Prize ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: PopSugar, Kirkus Reviews If you really want to know, we are the color of 7-Eleven root beer. The color of sand at Rockaway Beach when it blisters the bottoms of our feet. Color of soil . . . Welcome to Queens, New York, where streets echo with languages from all over the globe, subways rumble above dollar stores, trees bloom and topple over sidewalks, and the funky scent of the Atlantic Ocean wafts in from Rockaway Beach. Within one of New York City’s most vibrant and eclectic boroughs, young women of color like Nadira, Gabby, Naz, Trish, Angelique, and countless others, attempt to reconcile their immigrant backgrounds with the American culture in which they come of age. Here, they become friends for life—or so they vow. Exuberant and wild, together they roam The City That Never Sleeps, sing Mariah Carey at the tops of their lungs, yearn for crushes who pay them no mind—and break the hearts of those who do—all while trying to heed their mothers’ commands to be obedient daughters. But as they age, their paths diverge and rifts form between them, as some choose to remain on familiar streets, while others find themselves ascending in the world, beckoned by existences foreign and seemingly at odds with their humble roots. A blazingly original debut novel told by a chorus of unforgettable voices, Brown Girls illustrates a collective portrait of childhood, adulthood, and beyond, and is a striking exploration of female friendship, a powerful depiction of women of color attempting to forge their place in the world today. For even as the conflicting desires of ambition and loyalty, freedom and commitment, adventure and stability risk dividing them, it is to one another—and to Queens—that the girls ultimately return.

God Is a Brown Girl Too
Author: Cecilia B. Loving
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780979924729
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
God is a Brown Girl Too is a book of healing and self-empowerment for women of color. It is for women who want to understand better how to use spiritual principles to transform their lives. In God is a Brown Girl Too, Reverend Cecilia Loving helps readers move beyond the limitations of fear and doubt in order to engage in a unique dialogue with the divine within. Reverend Loving shares spiritual principles that help women transcend the ordinary and uplift the extraordinary, develop the courage to develop their own legends and be courageous enough to see God as themselves. God is a Brown Girl Too awakens the power of unconditional love, nurtures the joy of creating outside the box and bears witness to the wealth of ancient wisdom. Women of color, particularly black women, seldom recognize that years of oppression, denigration and marginalization often contribute to hatred and abuse of not only themselves but each other. God is a Brown Girl Too teaches women how to release the demons of jealousy and despair, how to tell a new story, and how to become victor rather than victim. Based on the God is a Brown Girl Too(r) retreat series owned by Reverend Loving, this book shows the importance of moving beyond religious tradition to understand the sacredness of Spirit within. By recognizing her own divinity, the "Brown Girl" no longer sins by missing the mark or fails to step into her greatness but contribute even more to salvation in healing and wholeness for the entire plane
