That's what Nefertiti, a single African American woman, discovered when she decided she wanted to adopt a Black baby boy out of the foster care system. Eager to finally join the motherhood ranks, Nefertiti was shocked when people started asking her why she wanted to adopt a "crack baby" or said that she would never be able to raise a Black son on her own. She realized that American society saw motherhood through a white lens, and that there would be no easy understanding or acceptance of the kind of family she hoped to build.
Motherhood So White is the story of Nefertiti's fight to create the family she always knew she was meant to have and the story of motherhood that all American families need now. In this unflinching account of her parenting journey, Nefertiti examines the history of adoption in the African American community, faces off against stereotypes of single, Black motherhood, and confronts the reality of raising children of color in racially charged, modern-day America.
Honest, vulnerable, and uplifting, Motherhood So White reveals what Nefertiti knew all along--that the only requirement for a successful family is one raised with love.

Описание: Life can be a struggle sometimes. The struggle can come from the choices that are made or the lifestyle that a person was born into. What are your "Streets?" Is it shame from a painful experience? Is it some of the things you've indulged in, knowing or unknowingly, that you should not have gotten involved with? Is it that you have the prestige, yet you do not know how to stay in a committed relationship? Sometimes we, as people, can have it all together in one area: school, success, reputation...and then not have it together at all, in another area of life. Dealing with trauma can leave a person in survival mode-or it can push someone to try harder until they begin to see permanent change As time progresses, the question may eventually be, "What am I missing?" This sometimes happens because sex, recreational drugs, partying, or going from relationship to relationship does not do it for them any longer. It is a knowing or a feeling that there must be more to life than this. It is a longing for change to occur Although many may not know how to get on the path or even where to start, just know that there is a reference point of greatness that can only come from God. There is greatness in each and every one of us, you just have to make the choice to forgive your past and those that may have hurt you in order for you to move forward. The choice of going in the right direction is linked to your destiny and to it being fulfilled. Are you ready to walk in greatness? Will you be made whole again? Your "Streets" do not have to control your destiny. Together, let's explore how to be ushered From the Streets and into The Palace.
