Paperback. Zustand: Good. The paperback edition of one of the most popular black self-help titles ever written. Thompkins cuts effectively through the myths surrounding the role of black women in modern society, returning power to wives, mothers and daughters fighting expectation. Black women are increasingly pressured by their own positive stereotype. Strong women who have been accorded the role of warrior, mother, childbearer and provider are being pushed into a place where empowered expectation has become obstructive. Thompkins explores the triumphs, struggles and lessons necessary to transcend the stereotypes and overcome the consequences of being a strong black woman. Despite the almost universal respect afforded to the strong black woman ideal, it can be more limiting than empowering. Too often, black women feel compelled to become "chronic caregivers", sacrificing their ability to become truly fulfilled individuals at great emotional, psychological and physical cost. Using over 20 years experience working with major companies on leadership and success management, Thompkins leads the black woman back onto the road to triumphant emotional well being.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. From the critically acclaimed author of Your Name Is a Song and the bestselling illustrator of The Proudest Blue comes a story about a Muslim boy who receives a salat (prayer) rug on his seventh birthday and becomes empowered about his faith. In this beautiful story of community, family, and acceptance, a boy named Muhammad receives a special salat rug on his seventh birthday. Seven is the age when Muslim children are encouraged to pray, and Muhammad is determined to do all five daily prayers on time. But one salat occurs during the school day--and he's worried about being seen praying at school. His father parks his truck to worship in public places, and people stare at and mock him. Will the same thing happen to Muhammad? In the end, with help from his teacher, he finds the perfect place to pray. Salat in Secret, by two highly acclaimed Muslim creators, is a poignant and empowering look at an important facet of Islam that many observant children cherish but might be scared to share. Aly, Hatem (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In this warm, sensitive and straightforward self-help guide for African American women, Toby Thompkins explores the triumphs, struggles and lessons necessary to transcend the stereotypes and overcome the consequences of being a strong black woman. Culled from interviews with both black women and black men from all walks of life, the personal stories Thompkins uses to illustrate his ideas and communicate his healing message illustrate the costs involved in measuring up to this archetypal image, one of the most powerful and enduring in American society. In reality, as Thompkins demonstrates, despite the almost universal respect and deference afforded the strong black women ideal, it can be more limiting than it is empowering. Too often, women of color feel compelled to become chronic caregivers, sacrificing their ability to become truly free and fulfilled individuals-at great emotional and physical cost. Thompkins makes the case for the need to supplant the myth of the strong black woman, particularly so that women can better understand and respond to their urgent need to care for themselves. He offers effective strategies by which women of any color can reclaim themselves and create lives characterized by new dimensions of fulfillment, love and joy.…
