Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A Call to the Black Man Give ear to what I'm about to sayWhat in the world happened?It's not supposed to be this way. We fought so hard for freedomAnd you have put me back in chainsCommitment, trust, seems to be bad words.I'm in bondage to your mind games Remember, you have a mother, sister, or daughterBut it was me you gave the ring.I have come to this conclusion I don't need a king TO BE A QUEEN! I've had to raise the children aloneLike when the master sold you astrayNow I have to look for youAnd again you've become a runaway A man that can walk out on his familyIs a part of slavery's aftermath?But enough with the dumb stuffThe past is the past. I am still that woman Who made you feel like a man?Now you are so out of placeStill, you want me to understand. Another form of rejectionI'm asking myself "what's wrong with me"Why am I always to blame?For your misplaced priorities? Either you get it together Either you are right or you are wrong.I can raise the children with you.I should not have to do it alone. Come inside these pages.Allow me to tailor you to fitComing from the strength of this Whole Woman.I should not be penalized for it I'm going to speak to the Whole Man in youLike I do in our time of intimacy.That's when I give you the freedom to be youAnd you give me the freedom to be me. Men are checking me out "right now"Making statements and, my, how they do flatter.They ask "Why are you alone or single?"Realize! I do have a choice in the matter. I was asked if I were to define the book WHOLE in one sentence, what would I say?"WHOLE is a groundbreaking, ground shaking, revolution that demands results!" "I recall the day as though it was yesterday. I stood in the mirror looking at a reflection of defeat never knowing if I would reach my God-ordained destiny. All my dreams, hopes, and desires devastated. I was distrait, frail, and I had gone from a size 12 to a size 6. I was beyond distressed I was destroyed. Lifelines can come in many ways. I knew I wanted and needed to come out, but I didn't know how. This is the time when I had to get real with myself and everyone else-so I threw out a lifeline. I made a simple telephone call to a friend and the Revolution began!"
