Dear Black Girls is a must-read for every Black girl out there.” ―Gabrielle Union\n\nThis one is for all the girls with an apostrophe in their names.\n\nThis is for all the girls who are labeled “too loud” and “too emotional.”\n\nThis is for all the girls who are constantly asked, “Oh, what did you do with your hair? That’s new.”\n\nThis is for my Black girls.\n\nDespite 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.\n\nWilson 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.\n\n“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\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 125029004X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.125029004X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Wilson, A'ja\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
