THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Through honest stories and inspiring lessons from her life, A'ja Wilson reminds us to never doubt who we are or apologize for being true to ourselves. Dear Black Girls is a must-read for every Black girl out there. ―Gabrielle Union This one is for all the girls with an apostrophe in their names.This is for all the girls who are labeled too loud and too emotional.
This is for all the girls who are constantly asked, Oh, what did you do with your hair? That's new.
This is for my Black girls. Despite gold medals, WNBA championships, and a list of accolades, A'ja Wilson knows how it feels to be swept under the rug--to not be heard, to not feel seen, to not be taken seriously. As a fourth grader going to a primarily white school in South Carolina, A'ja was told she'd have to stay outside for a classmate's birthday party. Huh? she asked. Because the birthday girl's father didn't like Black people. Wilson tells stories like this, about how even when life tried to hold her down, it didn't stop her. She shares her contribution to The Talk, and how to keep fighting, all while igniting strength, passion, and joy. Dear Black Girls is a necessary and meaningful exploration of what it means to be a Black woman in America today--and a rallying cry to lift up women and girls everywhere. Dear Black Girls is filled with phenomenal stories and empowering insight on what it means to be a woman in today's world. I didn't want to put it down. ―Tunde Oyeneyin, New York Times bestselling author of Speak
