Pretty for a black girl! is a truthful, inspirational, thought- provoking read. It is a very controversial book, dealing with the way black women are perceived by others even by themselves. However, it is not ONLY for young black women it is for a entire generation of women being told they are nothing if they are not what some people consider "pretty" dealing with a society-imposed lack of self-esteem. Enter inside the thoughts of what some are saying that you're probably thinking. Addressing the prejudice in all of us. When reading please remember to keep an open mind. Let's diminish ugly mindsets and replenish them with a new mind. Aisha Curry Visit www.aishacurry.com for more info...
