Amena Brown
概要
Black women always find a place to meet: in the natural hair aisle, at Beyoncé concerts, even online in memes and catchphrases. This book is one of those places: a living room where readers can contemplate how a well-picked afro can defy the laws of physics and why boob sweat has to exist in the first place. Here, Black Girl is a verb. Here, Black women can Black Girl in every way we want to.
Amena Brown’s book Never Tell a Black Girl How to Black Girl blends storytelling, humor, and pop culture commentary to traverse the magic and wisdom she's gleaned from being raised by Southern Black women, and supported by the community of Black women who hold her down today. After graduating from the International Black Girl Headquarters (the renowned HBCU Spelman College), Amena has built a career telling stories and celebrating Black womanhood. In her book, she shares stories of dancing in Janelle Monae's "Tightrope" music video and partnering with Tracee Ellis Ross to compose odes to natural hair. She imparts essential life lessons from the Real Housewives of Atlanta, and tells hair tales, including wisdom on the ideal style for her first speaking gig at Essence Fest (box braids, 100 percent).
In the end, Brown shares that Black women are a whole world. A galaxy of customs, language, code, and unspoken understandings, all explored with humor and heart in this unforgettable book.
批評家のレビュー
"Amena Brown has always been a wordsmith, but in this latest book she releases her comedic charm in ways that make you feel like you're giggling with your best friend. If you enjoy the writings of Samantha Irby and Phoebe Robinson, prepare to sign up for your next fanclub membership for Amena Brown."
—Austin Channing Brown, New York Times bestselling author of I'm Still Here
“This book is an ode to being a Black girl. I lost count of how many times I laughed out loud or took a long exhale while reading and said, “Yes. Same!" Filled with presence and humor, the book creates that rare, yet necessary space for being seen in a true way. Each chapter feels like you're in one of those conversations with a friend you did not realize you needed as much as you did, in a world that meets you right where you are.”
—Morgan Harper Nichols, artist and national bestselling author of All Along You Were Blooming
“Do not correct her. Publicly. Do not touch her hair. Especially without asking. Do not try to define her. She's too complex. Do not explain her to herself. This book is a love letter to Black girls who are tired of being instructed instead of understood. It honors our complexity, our stories, and the right to be different and the same all at the same time. Through lived experience and cultural reflection, this book unpacks identity and freedom in a world that once placed us in chains, then in boxes. It invites Black girls to release expectations, reclaim our own voices, own our gravitas, and define ourselves on our own terms, without apology. It reminds us to Never Tell a Black Girl, How to Black Girl, because...we got this! Girl, please.”
—Tarriona “Tank” Ball, Grammy-winning recording artist, poet, and author of Vulnerable AF
“Beautiful. Brilliant. Unapologetically Black. Amena writes Black girlhood and womanhood with humor, tenderness, and truth; this book is a love letter and a roadmap all at once. This is the big-sister-hug of a guide I personally wish I’d had sooner for navigating the beauty, complexity, and wonder of becoming.”
