Annotation: In this open love letter to black women everywhere, Michael Eric Dyson celebrates the strength and beauty of African-American women.
From Miss James, his grammar school teacher, to Linda Johnson Rice, who heads the communications empire that publishes Ebony and Jet, from Toni Morrison, whose novels inspired him, as a young welfare dad, to Debbie Bethea, the housecleaner whose labors remind him of his mother in Detroit, from civil rights widow Myrlie Evers-Williams to activist and scholar Angela Davis and many more the women in Dyson's pantheon inspire us to remember, When we love black women, we love ourselves, and the God who made us."
