On Fathers' Day in 2018, Marvyn Harrison created a WhatsApp group with all the Black fathers he knew (at the time, twenty-three people) to wish them a happy Fathers' Day. This small group chat grew to become a community; a hub for knowledge-sharing and support, with the network discussing co-parenting, cohabiting, marriage, fatherhood, blended families and much more. Dope Black Dads is now an internationally recognised community of over 40,000 across the UK, US, South Africa and beyond sharing their personal stories, journeys, life lessons and learnings derived from their experiences of being Black fathers. In this book, Marvyn brings to light his experience of Black fatherhood, discussing his own journey into fatherhood, his relationship with his own father, and the narratives around Black fatherhood, bringing in fellow Dope Black Dads such as Tinie Tempah, Mark Maciver, Raphael Sofoluke and Sean Fletcher to share their stories, wisdom, advice and fatherhood hacks. From deep dives into how you can prepare for fatherhood, working on your emotional and mental wellbeing ahead of having a child and learning how to love yourself as well as your partner and child, to the practicalities of co-parenting, co-habiting, finances and health to the importance of supporting Black women, examining Black masculinity and celebrating LGBTQIA+ Black dads, Dope Black Dads is an honest, informative and much-needed guide to Black fatherhood in all its forms.

From noted parenting expert and New York Times bestselling author Denene Millner comes the definitive book about parenting African American children. For over a decade, national parenting expert and bestselling author Denene Millner has published thought-provoking, insightful, and wickedly funny commentary about motherhood on her critically acclaimed website, MyBrownBaby.com. The site, hailed a “must-read” by The New York Times, speaks to the experiences, joys, fears, and triumphs of African American motherhood. After publishing almost 2,000 posts aimed at lifting the voices of parents of color, Millner has now curated a collection of the website’s most important and insightful essays offering perspectives on issues from birthing while Black to negotiating discipline to preparing children for racism. Full of essays that readers of all backgrounds will find provocative, My Brown Baby acknowledges that there absolutely are issues that Black parents must deal with that white parents never have to confront if they’re not raising brown children. This book chronicles these differences with open arms, a lot of love, and the deep belief that though we may come from separate places and have different backgrounds, all parents want the same things for our families—and especially for our children.

In "A Mother's Cry - He's Still My Child," you will enter the world of: Child vs. Parent - Realize how important it is to establish a nurturing and loving relationship, which is the main ingredient of a strong foundation in parental responsibility. Society vs. Parent - Be exposed to the challenges a parent incurs within the schools, juvenile court systems, and even from family. Learn how to get results. Parent vs. Self - Feel emotions of hurt, anger, disbelief, stress, determination, courage, and satisfaction! Find your point of getting over denial and letting go of guilt, while working toward balance, in the midst of "A Mother's Cry - He's Still My Child." 'This book is your constant reminder that as a child begins to challenge you, he or she is still your child. As responsible parents, we should commit to learning how to pray and never give up on them. However, we must know when to let go and let God.' Sharon Willis Asheville, North Carolina 'Wow! I really like it. When I read the chapter 'To You, Son' I had tears in my eyes. The book is very, very touching!' Tanja Rubenbauer Bavaria, Germany 'It is particularly hard for a mother to watch her child make inappropriate decisions and avoid giving up on them. This book has therapeutic value because it is written by a mother who shares her experience in dealing with a challenging child. The book has a great potential to help others that have not reached a balanced point. It encompasses situations all parents could encounter. This is a book that all parents and guardians should read.' Robert Simmons, Life Coach for Community Action Opportunities Asheville, North Carolina

Black Women Shattering Stereotypes: A Streaming Revolution focuses on the work, voices, and perspectives of Black women in popular film and television. Kay Siebler argues that within the past five years, in response to the digital age and the number of racist stereotypes being purported in dominant culture, Black women creators are making entertainment media that fights back against these racist and sexist narratives and celebrates the realities of being Black and being a woman in today’s world. When Black women are behind the camera, writing, directing, and producing, Siebler finds, the representations of Black women change dramatically in empowering and important ways. Focusing on films and series produced since 2015 that are made by, for, and about Black women, Siebler analyzes the portrayals of Black women and their culture in Bessie, Self Made, Hidden Figures, Harriet, Insecure, Being Mary Jane, Twenties, and Chewing Gum, among others. Siebler intertwines these analyses with in-depth interviews with over one hundred Black women throughout the book, offering a variety of perspectives across the broad spectrum of demographics that are—and are not—being represented in mainstream media.

As a young lad visiting Jackson, Mississippi, during many summers, Portia sat on the front porch and listened intently as her great-grandmother and grandmother told stories of perseverance, triumph, blessings, and strength. This experience and the richness of their recollection of love and family while also enduring the obstacles of oppression and segregation shaped the fiber of who she is. A full understanding of her identity and knowledge of family history kept her strong and resilient and gave her a foundation for survival to weather any storm.Portia was born at the very beginning of the civil rights era to parents who migrated from the South, and she was a teenager at the height of the '60s movement.

“Black women are dope because they rise and are yet rising. This dopeness is not hyperbolic or symbolic—rather, it is borne of persecution that has failed to frustrate a perseverant persistence to prevail.” Before sea to shining sea. Before spacious skies were pierced by purple mountains. Before the uniting of one nation. Black women learned to rise. In POWER: THE RISE OF BLACK WOMEN IN AMERICA, award-winning journalist and digital media executive Charity C. Elder posits that there has never been a better time to be a Black woman in the United States. POWER is an incisive disquisition on Black womanhood weaving theoretical frameworks of history and sociology with poignant interviews, ethnographic observation, and anecdotes gleaned from history, social media, pop culture, and the author’s lived experiences. Using data, the author substantiates the triumph of Black women. Original analysis of eighty years of US census data, prepared by the University of Minnesota and analyzed by Dr. Constance F. Citro, documents the remarkable ascension of Black women since the early twentieth century. An exclusive national survey conducted in partnership with the Marist Poll in 2021 not only reveals that 70 percent of Black women say they have been successful in life, but also that most believe they have the power to succeed. POWER does not shy away from the realities of structural oppression identified by the late Black feminist scholar bell hooks; rather it illuminates how Black women exercise agency to create meaningful lives. Success is not an anomaly, but a defining characteristic. Black women have amassed power—now, Elder posits, they need to acknowledge it and then wield the hell out of it.

Black women comedians are more visible than ever, performing around the world in physical venues like comedy clubs and festivals, along with appearing in films, streaming specials, and online videos. Across these mediums, humor—and particularly sass—functions as a tool for Black women to articulate and redress cultural, social, and political marginalization. J Finley theorizes sass as a new critical lens to better understand the power of Black women's humor and humanity and explores how sass functions as a powerful resource in Black women's expressive repertoire. Challenging mainstream assumptions about "sassiness" as an identity or personality trait to which Black women humorists may be reduced, Finley deploys sass to create a new genre of discourse for understanding the ways in which Black women use language, style, gesture, and intent to produce meaning—often humorous—in speaking back to authority. Grounded in an ethnographic approach to Black women's experiences, Finley conducted extensive interviews as well as participant-observation as a critic, audience member, and comic herself to collect and honor the stories that Black women comics tell about themselves. Interdisciplinary and conceptually rigorous, Finley's work shows us how we can and should read Black women's expressions of sass in humor as attempts at social transformation that involve a fundamental critique of power and authority, and a gesture at collective liberation.
