Full Description
All It Takes is CourageWoman. Despite the many tribulations placed upon you in our society today, you want to rule the world. You want to be powerful beyond measure. You understand that your very womanhood, while a source of oppression, can also be the source of your liberation. All it takes is courage-the kind of courage that involves facing the bull head on, but also the kind of courage that requires hope. For you've come to the realization that facing the world without hope is child-like naivete. But how do you find hope?Learn to rule the world. Learn to be powerful beyond measure. Learn to find HOPE.*Mike the Poet-the son of a single mother; a big brother; a father figure-might have some answers. Hope combines poetry and prose to offer a map to resilience. This genre-biding book is the gripping story of Hope, a young girl who escapes her parents' home for a journey of self-actualization and empowerment; the interstitials each contain poems that will push you to question your own paradigms about family and duty, love and expectations, loss and estrangement, abandonment and forgiveness, grief and healing, and HOPE.
