Black Woman Redefined:

Finally, a groundbreaking book that reveals and dispels the unfair stereotypes attached to strong, successful 21st-century black women! Author Sophia A. Nelson challenges Americans to redefine our vision, inspired in part by what she calls “open season on accomplished black women”—from Imus’s “nappy-headed hoes” remark to First Lady Michelle Obama’s unflattering caricature on the cover of the New Yorker and beyond. Complete with thought-provoking essays from journalists, political figures, entertainers and more, Black Woman Redefined brings us on a no-holds-barred journey into the hearts and minds of accomplished black women to reveal insights, and presents a solution-rich pathway for redefining old perceptions going forward.

Book Description:

Kaeyla “Goldie” Dennis, the shrewd, sexy hood wife who scammed, conned, danced and slept her way to the top of Newark’s street society, is about to make herself a dangerous enemy! In Meesha Mink’s Real Wifeys: Get Money, we meet Harriett “Luscious” Jordan, who used to work for Goldie’s exotic dancing biz as a stripper. Now, Luscious is a first-rate hustler and a big-time party promoter. She’s also the wifey of superstar rapper Make$, who lives up to his name and keeps Luscious living in luxury.

Luscious feels secure enough to hold down the home front while Make$ goes out on tour. But when she finds out she has an STD, she knows her man has been getting around on more than a tour bus. What she doesn’t suspect—until one fateful night at trendy Club 973—is that he’s been getting around with Goldie, her ex-boss—and now her ex-best friend.

And now, with Make$ behind bars and wifey Luscious cut off from his cash, she’s got just one thing on her mind: cold, hard revenge. Find Goldie and make her pay. But when she corners Goldie and finds out the terrible truth about Make$, revenge suddenly gets a lot more complicated—and may just get both of them killed.
