This book puts words to many emotions that I and other Black girls have experienced during our lifetime. Whether 12 years old or 112 years young, through ups and downs, trials and successes, this book offers a dialogue that often remains deeply hidden within us. "Can We Talk?" is a direct question to your inner, Dear Black Girl.
This inner dialogue is colored by art, poetry, and “soul-work” designed to meet you where you are, then lift you higher. What if these three words opened up spaces and unlocked places that are otherwise hidden within you? What if these three words gave you permission to speak to your most vulnerable you?
What if they gave you permission to speak to your, “Dear Black Girl?” Would you?
