Gangs are a blemish on our society and cause much distress to those who are around them. They sell drugs, commit acts of violence, and influence our children. We need to learn how to fight back, not with more police or longer sentences, but at the heart of gangs, which is their recruitment ability. We can only do this by arming our children and ourselves with the necessary tools. Awareness, education, and truth are what is needed. Gangs come off as glamorous and cool, when in reality, the life is brutal and eats a person up like cancer. We can beat thistogether!

Tears of My Mother
Author: Wendy Osefo
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982194529
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
When star of Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Potomac Dr. Wendy Osefo was growing up, her mother was her everything. But when she became a mother herself, everything changed. In this “exquisitely-drawn portrait of the intense bond that only a mother can have with a daughter” (Katie Haufner, author of Mother Daughter Me), Wendy explores how her Nigerian upbringing has affected her life, her success, and her role as a parent. Wendy Osefo’s mother, Iyom Susan Okuzu, arrived in the United States from Nigeria with two things: a single suitcase and the fierce determination to make a better life for herself and her future family. And she succeeded: starting out working in a fast-food restaurant and ultimately becoming the director of nursing at a major metropolitan hospital. While Susan may have taken pride in triumphing over every financial and emotional challenge, in Nigerian culture, a parent is only as successful as his or her children. And so her daughter, with gratitude and appreciation for her mother’s sacrifices, worked hard to meet every demand Susan made of her. With four advanced degrees and a position at Johns Hopkins University as a professor—as well as being a highly sought-after political commentator, a cherished wife, and a loving mother of three—Dr. Wendy has given her mother bragging rights for life. But at what cost to herself? In Tears of My Mother, the star of The Real Housewives of Potomac describes growing up as a first-generation American, balancing two distinct cultures. And she takes a critical look at the paradox of her mother’s parenting: approval conditioned by achievement. As a teenager, Wendy struggled to carve out her own identity while still walking the narrow path of her mother’s expectations. Unwavering family loyalty and obedience gave Wendy the road map to making it in America, but it also drove a wedge between mother and daughter, never more so than when she began to build her own family. “A love letter to Dr. Osefo’s mother and first-generation immigrants all across America” (Library Journal), this book is for anyone who has faced conflict in the mother-daughter relationship or wondered how much of their own upbringing they want to pass on to the next generation.

It took me thirty years to write my book. This is my first book to be published. I wanted to share with the world the injustice that my family and many other families had to endure. The justice system is not always right. It tore our families apart. Not even love could fix what had been broken. I pray that something in my book might help the people that have been affected by our case or one like it. Thank you Dana Nachman and Don Hardy for doing the documentary The Witch Hunt. It gave me the incentive to finish my book. Thank you, my children, for loving me, Carol, Johnnie, Tommie, Lisa, and Bryan. Thank you, Rick, for always being there to catch this mother’s tears. Yvonne, Pam, and Misty, thank you for holding me together.
