GOLD MEDALIST OF FOREWORD REVIEWS' 2015 INDIEFAB AWARDS IN WOMEN'S STUDIES What's wrong with black women? Not a damned thing! The Sisters Are Alright exposes anti–black-woman propaganda and shows how real black women are pushing back against distorted cartoon versions of themselves. When African women arrived on American shores, the three-headed hydra—servile Mammy, angry Sapphire, and lascivious Jezebel—followed close behind. In the '60s, the Matriarch, the willfully unmarried baby machine leeching off the state, joined them. These stereotypes persist to this day through newspaper headlines, Sunday sermons, social media memes, cable punditry, government policies, and hit song lyrics. Emancipation may have happened more than 150 years ago, but America still won't let a sister be free from this coven of caricatures. Tamara Winfrey Harris delves into marriage, motherhood, health, sexuality, beauty, and more, taking sharp aim at pervasive stereotypes about black women. She counters warped prejudices with the straight-up truth about being a black woman in America. “We have facets like diamonds,” she writes. “The trouble is the people who refuse to see us sparkling.”

In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. We bear witness that Muhammad of 1400 years ago (PBUH) is Allah's last Prophet. Peace! Peace! I am Field Supreme Minister, Ali Mahdi Muhammad. Spiritual Leader of the New World Nation of Islam. The Field Supreme Staff was commissioned Saviour's Day, February 26, 1960. That was the same day that our Father, the Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad told tens of thousands of His followers and announced to the world that He, Elijah was Allah, God. He, Elijah said, "I have been made equal in knowledge with Allah. I control the winds and the seas. I have power over the sun, moon and stars. I have waited 379 years for this day." The Commissioning of the Field Supreme Staff was witnessed by twenty of the Nation of Islam's Ministers at the Minister's Meeting that day-Saviour's Day, 1960. When Elijah (My God, Your Messenger) said He is equal to Allah many people walked out of the auditorium. But we, the Field Staff believed every word he said. He began to teach us the secrets of God being among us and what we must do the build the House of Our Father's Desires. (1 Chronicles 28:5-15) We, the New World Nation of Islam, are the original followers of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad. We are that infant nation, a nation within a nation, born to build a New World. The History in this book is the True and Untold Story of the Nation of Islam by the people who actually lived it.

Drugs, guns, and violence-all are a part of American urban culture. Street Corner Symphony shares the dark side of the urban experience and how one man becomes ensnared in its web. Regardless of race, color, or creed, many families become embroiled in this culture, turning their American dream into a nightmare. Author Robert Lee Glover shares his personal story of tragedy and triumph through the urban landscape of drugs and violence. But Glover also points out the things in life that make us great, and how we are at our best when life seems to be at its worst. Street Corner Symphony will give hope to those with family members involved with drugs and assure them that it is not their fault. Glover's intimate journey through the horrors of drugs is also filled with redemption and spiritual awakening. Most importantly, Glover stresses that there is still hope for all of us, no matter what we have done or the life we have led. With strength, faith, and optimism, anything is possible.
