<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Two cherished African-American traditions--cooking up a meal to nourish the body and cooking up stories to nourish the soul--come together in this entertaining look at the many "ingredients" that enrich our lives.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>To tell a story well, you have to live a story well -- with courage, persistence, and faith that everything's going to turn out all right. <i>Black-Eyed Peas for the Soul</i> is a collection of stories that reveals universal themes, as well as the unique perspectives of African Americans. The first collection of its kind, <i>Black-Eyed Peas for the Soul</i> boldly dispels the myth of a homogeneous Black culture. Diverse voices -- including those of Zora Neale Hurston, Dawn Turner Trice, and Frederick Douglass -- tell our stories of beginnings, wisdom, patience, hard work, excellence, joy, and miracles. Stories about love, healing, and atonement are told with insight, humor, and gritty honesty. <br> Arising from these distinct voices is the call for hope. Enjoy these stories and let them guide your soul to a place where you can find solace and draw nourishment, a place that can warm and soothe you, like a bowl of black-eyed peas.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Donna Marie Williams, </b> author of <i>Sister Feelgood, </i> is a freelance writer and editor.
