My Mother DID Have a Dream...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My mother did have a dream... for me and my brother. But unfortunatley, she wasn't able to see it become a reality. My mother died at the young age of 28 years, a victim of breast cancer and denial. I was eight years old when she left us and I really missed out on the motherly advice that's passed on from generation to generation by mothers to their daughters. As I read the book I found "words of wisdom" from other famous black mothers and daughters such as Gladys Knight, Maya Angalou, Coretta Scott King and many others. I was always told,"it takes a village to raise a child", and I saw this book as my "village of black mothers" just trying to give one of their daughters words of encouragement and strength in her time of need. I also liked how you can add your own "words of wisdom" to pass to your own daughter.
