Description:

"Mama," writes Brenda Richardson, "you taught me how a black woman could survive and prevail in this world . . . but because you never learned yourself, you couldn't teach me how to make love work. . . . I don't mean any disrespect, Mama, but . . . now I have children of my own. And in a loud revolutionary voice, I declare to the universe: the pain stops here."
