Inhaltsangabe

This is an honest gut wrenching narrative of transparent truths. A journey written from a personal pen; simple, careful and urgent. An emergence of refreshing memories that from a non-radial tale tells the kernel of affi rmative action" the power of true access to education in a swelling chorus of truths and experiences. We live in the same cities, but we don't talk to each other . . . most folks don't have a clue what the real journey has been for some blacks. Dr. Patricia Ferdinand succeeds in sharing with a "small island" naivety that is simply refreshing. Rosie Gordon-Wallace, Diaspora Vibe Cultural Arts Incubator "This book highlights an amazing journey that is shared by the Caribbean matriarchs who I cherish and learn from. I see how their presence and choices serve as a model for our children and grandchildren. I see how invaluable having such a strong, focused mother was to my development and education both within the walls of a school and externally in how I have come to approach my professional life" Constance Simpson "Provides amazing insight into Patricia's educational experience that relates to women of the Caribbean, and to women in America today. A big call to women of Africa descent of all ages to give birth; as Patricia does; and inspire new lives" Violet Johnson " A terrifi c reminder that in every area of our lives God is in charge and cares about us; especially when we are faithful to Him" Clive McDonald
