Stop Being Everyone's Mule! Stop Being Everyone's Beast Of Burden

                                    Stop Being Everyone's Mule

 

 


 

   As an African American Woman the cover was not designed to insult. It was designed to wake up black women. Make African American women realize how everyone have been using them for centuries. 

 

 The title of this book tells exactly what the book is about. 

Historically black women has been the major supporters of everyone's causes but their own. They supported and marched with everyone and everything to the Civil Rights Movement to The Feminist Movement.  

However, it's strange but not unusual when it comes to others giving the same support to black women there a sudden great void of silence and feign of deafness. 

So, I say black women are going to have to teach others we are not to taken for grant.  This applies to the black man as well. You only reciprocate support that has been given to you. It's time for black women to wake up and see that if something is not beneficial to you then it is not worth supporting. 

Black women have to begin to learn to look out for themselves because when we are spent from taking care of others then who will look after us? Gone are the respectful days of taking care of the elderly, invalids and sick. We are living in the 'me' era where it's pretty much every person for his or her self.

    I wrote this book because too many African American women are not living their fullest potential because they are too busy taking care of everyone but themselves.

  The pre-internet history of Karens complicates things a little. Most African Americans already knew the Emilys, Anns, Karens, Beckys existed and knew they are not as innocent as they pretend. Too many black men have lost their lives because of the lies told by a Liz, Emily, Ann, Karen, Becky, Permit Patty or whatever name you want to call these women who use their white privileged as a weapon.    Among black women, the shorthand of a “Karen”—a white woman to be wary of because she won’t hesitate to wield privilege at the expense of others—Black women have known this to exist for years. “The cultural reference has always been there; it just hasn’t always been so specific to one person’s name,” says Meredith Clark, a media researcher at the University of Virginia. “Karen has gone by different names. Back in the ’90s, when ‘Baby Got Back’ came out, it was Becky. There will be another name."   What does this statement says about people who are willing to wield power to harm others j

The Book: Girl Child In The UnPromised Land

        For African Americans, especially the girl child.. dealing with America is like being in a relationship with a mean, violent person.       The way most African American females see the African American's experience with America is through lens that  have been tainted with violence and splattered with blood. Utterly ridden with violence, monstrosity and hatred.  The African Americans' relationship with America is much like the worst scenario one can conjure: a very bad case of domestic violence.     America says: "It's your fault why I hate you so much. If you were so (fill in the blank) I'd feel some remorse about what I did to you. How can one honestly say when the social economic conditions created by slavery, Jim Crow and systematic racism has locked the African American into a life which there's no way out.    America is much like an abusive husband who will fight and defend his wife out of one side of his mouth while on the side, he calls her names

It speaks on historically how African American women have relied on each other for support and encouragement.      This network of women helped each other over come the most astringent ostracizes.

Books that depict a normal black woman.

 When I was first introduced to the Unholy Pursuit Books I was expecting it to be more along the line of the horror or urban genre but it isn't.  The opening caught my attention because its something the average woman can relate to. In the beginning, I didn't quite know what to make of this particular genre. Mainly because I don't think I ever encountered it before. I have been a reader all my life. I was reading at age four and I pretty much remembers all I have read. It's speculative fiction/fantasy/philosophy/horror/romance  It's an unusual but in a very good way. It's different. It's an exciting story of a mother and daughter being pursued by dark forces.  The mother's name is Ana, she's tough as nails, but tender when she needs to be.  The daughter's name is Bea. She's a foul-mouthed little angel.   https://www.amazon.com/Unholy-Pursuit-Devil-Trail-UnHoly-ebook/dp/B01MQQM51K      👉👌
