"Your voice has unimaginable power, and you have every right to use it. This book will show you how."--from the foreword by Danielle Coke, illustrator, advocate, and entrepreneur
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. 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. She's not taking it anymore, and she's calling you to join her in resisting racism by speaking the truth.
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.
"Henny is candid about her own path to self-acceptance . . . Readers will be empowered."--Publishers Weekly
