You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience and the Black Experience: An anthology by Tarana Burke, Brené Brown

5.0

I seriously almost underlined every paragraph in this book. There were so many essays where I saw myself, my family, my friends, my life and struggles. The places where I thought I was alone were framed in a way that helped me understand them and nudge me toward healing. I needed this book. I’m so thankful for this collection and can only hope that more books like this are written for Black people. While everyone may resonate with this book it truly felt like this was for me. I rarely revisit books but this is one that I will absolutely pick up again.
