"ANATOMY OF A BLACK MOTHER will grab you as you share in the journeys of many Black mothers in understanding and accepting their role in the fight for their children and families in today's society."

Black mothers are to be ready and empowered to give their sons and daughters a well-deserved chance to live up to their full potential and greatness. But in order to do this vital work-and to recognize the amazing giftings that exist within each one of them-they need to know and take ownership of the many characteristics that form their anatomy as Black mothers.

Anatomy of a Black Mother unveils six of these characteristics, relates each one to the unique challenges faced by Black mothers, and then features the story of Black mothers who exemplify these characteristics, told in their own words. You will be educated, inspired, and infused to action as you discover these characteristics for yourself and see how they can be manifested in your own anatomy as a Black mother.
