Recommended Reading: Black Girls Rock edited by Beverly Bond

“Our magic exists in our leadership, in our ability to make a way out of no way, to stand firm and deliver, and to speak truth to power. It lives in our collective journey and can be attributed, in part, to our shared resistance, our survival, and our remarkable resilience.” -Beverly Bond

Black Girls Rock!: Owning Our Magic. Rocking Our Truth edited by Beverly Bond is full of #blackgirlmagic and I am all the way here for it. With essays and beautiful photography featuring the likes of Ava DuVernay, Mara Brock Akil, Solange, Janelle Monáe, Danai Gurira, Tracee Ellis Ross, Issa Rae (and many more) this book is full of inspiration.

Reading the words of these women not only inspired me, they encouraged me to keep pursuing my dreams no matter what. If you haven’t gotten a chance to grab this book up since the release, I implore you to do so ASAP. You won’t be disappointed. 🧚🏾‍♀️
