Summary:
"An Unvarnished Perspective on Racism That Calls Black Women to Find Their
Voice
. Being Black in a society developed by white men to benefit white men means constantly pushing back against systems that were not constructed for
your
flourishing. White privilege. White cultural norms. White beauty standards. White noise. You're made to feel that
your
life doesn't matter,
your
opinions aren't valid, and
your
entire existence is too loud. It can feel like the whole
world
is telling you to shut up. To these forces, Ally Henny is here to say, 'No. I am a loud Black woman, and I won't shut up.' Ally knows what it's like to navigate racism and racialized sexism, having spent most of her life in predominantly white spaces. She's not taking it anymore, and she's calling you to join her in resisting racism by speaking the truth -- no matter the cost. In this compelling book, Ally tells her own story of
finding
her
voice
, pushing back against oppression, and embracing her unique perspective as a loud Black woman. And she invites you to find
your
voice
in a
world
that
tries
to
silence
you. If you're tired of feeling silenced, misunderstood, and abused by society, you'll find here powerful words of liberation that will empower you to find -- and use --
your
voice
."--Publisher.
