"Besides offering historical and theological foundations to validate the experiences of African American women, LaVerne McCain Gill offers suggestions for self-evaluation and narratives on contemporary programs that successfully address the issue of reestablishing an ethic of black womanhood in the community." "The book provides new insights into these virtues as reflected in the stories of African women in the Bible, including Hagar, Zipporah, Rahab, and the Queen of Sheba. To bring her message home to women today, Gill interweaves stories of pioneers who are the very embodiment of these virtues - women such as Rosa Parks, Sojourner Truth, Mary McLeod Bethune, and Fannie Lou Hamer." "Reflection questions are included at the end of each chapter, along with suggestions for how the book can be used in mentoring programs and other settings where the ethic of black womanhood can be nurtured."—Jacket.
