Life Changing Notes

This book exhibits the extreme skill and insight possessed by the editor, Dr. Patricia Bell-Scott. Joining a volume of similar works, the words in this book become more than a narrative or a story. They become a way to engage your innermost thoughts and emotions and not feel alone, isolated or ashamed. This book is a source, a reference and a guide to feminist thought and qaulitative expression. It sits on my shelf as a handy reference when discussing and further exploring the rich, complex and beautiful lives of black women. Excellence does indeed still exist in the scholarly world. Bravo!

I loved this book!!!!

What a wonderful opportunity to see into the lives of other African American women and to hear how they handle different life challenges and general occurences. It's rich in candor and honesty.
