Description: Ladies, we have all been there. Holding it down for your husband, your kids, your family, your friends; holding it down for work and business...everyone and everything but you! How many times have you said you were fine, when you really weren't? How many times have you forgone rest in order to finish work at home or your job? How many times have you denied yourself proper mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health for the sake of maintaining the title of "Strong Black Woman"? How do we begin to accept this reality in order to tear down this perception that has caused women to spiral into their breaking point? Stuck in the Trap: How Being a Strong Black Woman Almost Killed Me is a compilation of lived experiences presented by the women that know a strong Black woman and are Strong Black Women. Because Author Margaret E. Brown knows firsthand what it means to fill the role of a "Strong Black Woman, she brought these women together to share their stories. You will read life experiences of Black women from all walks of life. You can expect to be enlightened, surprised, and asked to break the cycle of being: A Strong Black Woman. You will be asked to read and reflect or act, it's your choice. Either way, it's time to break the cycle and set the captives free.
