Why we hate Black Women: Deconstructing the Paradox of Black Female Masculinity is a book that takes a critical look at the lives of Black Women in order to answer a few questions: Why are so many Black women alone? Why are they abused, abandoned, betrayed, devalued and haled? This quest for truth opens up a cultural Pandora's Box of issues that date back over 400 years. Whether we're discussing corporate women, college women, church women or economically challenged women, their stories are the same. Whether they've reached the heights of an Oprah Winfrey or have struggled to make ends meet, there is one chord that binds them all together - the stigma of what it means to be Black and female in America.

Book Description
In this analysis of social history, examine the complex lineage of America's oppression of Black companionship.According to the 2010 US census, more than seventy percent of Black women in America are unmarried. Black Women, Black Love reveals how four centuries of laws, policies, and customs have created that crisis.Dianne Stewart begins in the colonial era, when slave owners denied Blacks the right to marry, divided families, and, in many cases, raped enslaved women and girls. Later, during Reconstruction and the ensuing decades, violence split up couples again as millions embarked on the Great Migration north, where the welfare system mandated that women remain single in order to receive government support. And no institution has forbidden Black love as effectively as the prison-industrial complex, which removes Black men en masse from the pool of marriageable partners.Prodigiously researched and deeply felt, Black Women, Black Love reveals how white supremacy has systematically broken the heart of Black America, and it proposes strategies for dismantling the structural forces that have plagued Black love and marriage for centuries.

Book Description
In this life, love is hard to come by, and sharing love with someone should never go unrewarded. Many black women are not afraid to love someone, however they are afraid to love and have it taken for granted. The effects of love gone bad can be life changing because being in a relationship or marriage for years, and discover that the person receiving your love is cheating or abusing you can really change your heart. Once again, I bring you women that have loved the wrong man for all the right reasons. They will share with you, the beauty of their relationships or marriages and the problems that now imbrued their hearts and mind possibly forever. Some of these women would share with you, the signs of problems that were invisible however, through time they wind up embracing the hurt and reality of giving love and time to men that has destroyed their love and trust. In addition, I am bringing to you the poignant experiences of how love can change a person's life in ways that can become destructive or instructive to their self-esteem and confidence. These women lives are real, so are their problems loving and wasting time on men that wind up hurting them. Therefore, this book encourages them to continue to love, but in a cautious manner. While the time is changing where people are choosing to have sex, without the problem of commitment, my message I convey is that love should continue, and identifying the characteristics in men that will wind up hurting women is my overall agenda. Because I believe, that all women and men should find love, and although relationships and marriages end, another love wrapped in friendship should take over where intimate love fail and stabilize hearts with peace and reconciliation.

Book Description
2021 NAACP Image Award Nominee: Outstanding Literary Work – Non-Fiction Honorable Mention for the 2021 Organization of American Historians Darlene Clark Hine Award A vibrant and empowering history that emphasizes the perspectives and stories of African American women to show how they are—and have always been—instrumental in shaping our country In centering Black women’s stories, two award-winning historians seek both to empower African American women and to show their allies that Black women’s unique ability to make their own communities while combatting centuries of oppression is an essential component in our continued resistance to systemic racism and sexism. Daina Ramey Berry and Kali Nicole Gross offer an examination and celebration of Black womanhood, beginning with the first African women who arrived in what became the United States to African American women of today. A Black Women’s History of the United States reaches far beyond a single narrative to showcase Black women’s lives in all their fraught complexities. Berry and Gross prioritize many voices: enslaved women, freedwomen, religious leaders, artists, queer women, activists, and women who lived outside the law. The result is a starting point for exploring Black women’s history and a testament to the beauty, richness, rhythm, tragedy, heartbreak, rage, and enduring love that abounds in the spirit of Black women in communities throughout the nation.

Using an array of theoretical frameworks and methodologies, this collection features cutting edge research from scholars interested in the relationship among media, society, perceptions, and Black women. The uniqueness of this book is that it serves as a compilation of “hot topics” including ABC’s Scandal, Beyoncé’s Visual Album, and Oprah’s Instagram page. Other themes have roots in reality television, film, and hip hop, as well as issues of gender politics, domestic violence, and colorism. The discussion also extends to the presentation and inclusion of Black women in advertising, print, and digital media.
