Chicken Soup for the
African American Woman's Soul ...

Laughter, love and memories to honor the legacy of Sisterhood

Chicken Soup for the African American Woman's Soul is a rich collection of stories that truly celebrate the mountaintops and share the valleys of the African American woman's experience; highlighting her moments of strength, as well as her struggles.

This candid, touching and inspiring collection of stories proves that the spirit of sisterhood extends beyond geography, economics, age and time. Whether we're passing on family traditions, keeping the faith or just keepin' it real, one thing is for sure; we are here because of the shoulders of we stand on.

Chicken Soup for the African American Woman's Soul will leave you feeling as if you've just shared a sacred space with some legendary African American women through quotes or stories from...

• Rosa Parks

• Coretta Scott King and

• Mary McLeod Bethune

...and modern day heroines like...

• Patti LaBelle

• Halle Berry and

• Queen Latifah

Inspiring moments of ordinary sisters doing extraordinary things in the world are also shared-from voting in a time when voting could cost you your life, to celebrating everything from our heritage to our hair.

Whether you are a mother, daughter, grandmother or girlfriend, these stories of trial and triumph will encourage and inspire you as you feed your soul and soothe your spirit.

For the souls that have withstood the storm,
the faith that did not budge and the
rejoicing that came in the morning.
This book is dedicated to you!
