Walk Tall

About the Book

"I have been in search of a book that lifts me in celebration of who I am as an African-American woman and my blessed connection to other women of color, to all women, to all people; a book that teaches me in testimony that I must, and can, take charge of the health of my soul and, therefore, awake each morning ready to live in faith, in love, in compassion with others I need search no longer. Walk Tall is that book."-Gloria Wade-Gayles, author of My Soul is a Witness
