You are welcomed to this safe space to share, experience, and discover the array
of heartfelt emotions that define the unique bond that black
women have with their fathers. My Soul to His Spirit: Soulful
Expressions from Black Daughters to Their Fathers is the
book that gives voice to the black female child, now woman,
as she recounts her relationship with her father. A girl's relationship,
or lack thereof, with her father is a powerful force in how
she relates to all men during her lifetime. Whether that bond
is healthy, strong, loving, passive, abusive, destructive, or
non-existent, it sets the foundation for her ability to love
and for future family dynamics for years to come.
This powerful book can also be an asset in the classroom. If you are an educator, you may purchase copies at a significant discount.
