But virtually nothing has been said about the extraordinary women who raised them, whose lives spanned Jim Crow, the Great Migration, the civil rights movement, and the specific prejudices Black women faced during these and many more pivotal moments in American history. Berdis, Alberta, and Louise pushed their sons toward greatness with the conviction that all human beings deserve dignity and respect, teaching resistance and a fundamental belief in the worth of Black people. These women, their similarities and their differences as individuals and as mothers, represent a piece of history left untold and a celebration of Black motherhood long overdue. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eA B\u0026amp;N Monthly Pick\u003cbr\u003eA Phenomenal Books Club Highlight\u003cbr\u003eA \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e Bestsellers Editors' Choice\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAn Amazon Editor's Pick for February\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAmazon's Best Biographies and Memoirs of 2021\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of theSkimm's 16 Essential Books to Read This Black History Month\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of Fortune Magazine's 21 Books to Look Forward to in 2021!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of Badass Women's Bookclub picks for Badass Books We Can't Wait to Read in 2021! \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eWorking Mother Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e's 21 Best Books of 2021 for Working Moms\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eMs. Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e's Most Anticipated Reads for the Rest of Us 2021\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of Bustle's 11 Nonfiction Books To Read For Black History Month -- All Written By Women\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eOne of SheReads.com's Most anticipated nonfiction books of 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Anna Malaika Tubbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Flatiron Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/28\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.30w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250756138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnna Malaika Tubbs\u003c\/b\u003e is a Cambridge Ph.D. candidate in Sociology and a Bill and Melinda Gates Cambridge Scholar.
