I read your AMAZING anthology and amazing doesn’t begin to describe it. All I can say is that it was GRIPPING…from the first page I was grabbed and then the stories that followed, one after another captivated me. I think what made it so powerful was the stories are side by side..

Virtually since the country’s inception, U.S. citizens have been told they are overdue for a national ‘conversation about race’ which somehow never seems to happen. In the meantime, and over a silence spanning centuries, racial atrocities continue to accumulate. This anthology speaks back to a nation’s willful disavowal from the local level. In these pages, a remarkable collective of women confront difficult truths about how race is experienced in hopes of transcending our ongoing racial nightmare. With stories both intimate and resonant, these authors write to advance the dream of transracial democracy.

All praise for the SISter participants and contributors to this enlightening book. The shared stories open our eyes to experiences many of us are only now becoming aware.
The model of SIS is an inspiring example of bringing diverse people together. It underscores the reality that as we get to know one another and become friends, racism and prejudice organically melt away and, one heart at a time, will lead to change in the world.
