Where irrational beliefs are standard justification for unsubstantiated aspects of human nature, conviction is befitting even when not well-supported.
With thematic elements centered on cultural reflection, spirituality, and femininity, Woman to Woman: African American Voices on Faith, Resilience, and Joy1 is a four-part anthology that depicts first-person perspectives on spiritual strength.
Filled with a unique blend of voices, it allows readers to explore the supernal journeys of Black women who relied upon faith to navigate independent loss, struggle, and collective oppression while balancing the weight of societal expectations.
Each author effectively centers on and subtly challenges one or more of the stereotypes heaped upon, and often inaccurately associated with Black church, Black motherhood, Black sisterhood, and childless, educated, single, or professional Black women.
A collaborative and practical resource for practicing and non-practicing Christians, its authors reflect the diversity of American, as well as the complexity of Black American cultures. Its strengths include clear illustrations of intersectionality's existence, its influence on the experiences of Black American women, and how reverential reliance is its fiercest combatant.
A contemporary portrayal of faith as a nuanced expression of womanhood, and published by Our Daily Bread Publishers, this multifaceted celebration of Black femininity uses class, community, gender, geography, and race as lenses for developing and sustaining relationships with God.
Rooted in community and resilience, this book affirms the duality and diversity of Black women worldwide. Designed to foster personal reflection, it will resonate with individuals who share introspective faith.
