The history behind this needs to be shared with the world so that the negative untruths about the Black woman can be dispelled and our young women will understand that media, news, music, and television are also tools used to take away their intelligence, respect, strength, beauty, and self-pride that they innately own.

The decision to write this book was driven by a dual compulsion that compelled me in two directions.
