"Tarana didn't always have the courage to say me too. As a child, she reeled from her sexual assault, believing she was responsible. Unable to confess what she thought of as her own sins for fear of shattering her family, she split in two. One side was the bright, intellectually curious third-generation Bronxite who was steeped in Black literature and power, and the other was the bad, shame-ridden girl who thought of herself as a dirty rule breaker, not as a victim or a survivor. She tucked one away behind a wall of pain and anger, which seemed to work ... until it didn't. Tarana fought to reunite her fractured self, through organizing, pursuing justice, and finding community. Here she shares her extensive work supporting and amplifying the power of Black and brown girls, and the devastating realization that to truly help these girls, she needed to help that scared, ashamed child still within her. It was her experience caring for Heaven, Diamond, and countless others that gave her the courage to embrace her own pain."--,Provided by publisher.
