The Sisters Are Alright: Changing the Broken Narrative of Black Women in America by Tamara Winfrey Harris

5.0

---

THIS is a MUST read for any African/African-American woman who's ever been called angry, irate, ugly, hard to deal with or any of the other things we get called on a basis. It's the textual equivalent of being thrown into a sister circle and being reaffirmed that you're going to be alright. We maybe painted as "the problem" by others, but we as women of the diaspora know the truth of who we are and how we came to be. Thankfully, with tis book, Tamara Winfrey Harris thankfully puts together a work of social commentary and research that not only lets us air out our grievances, but also a book that takes the critics of African/African-American women to task and demands recognition for all that we do.

If you've got a tambourine, be ready to shake it because Motha Harris wrote 'de truth in these pages. I recommend it to EVERYONE!!!!!!!
