O knihe

'Sometimes a single story can change the world. Unbound is one of those stories. Tarana's words are a testimony to liberation and love.' BRENÉ BROWN

'A coming of age story that is at once searingly painful, brilliant, and beautiful.' IMANI PERRY

'I will never stop being grateful for Tarana Burke's wisdom and courage - and I will never stop thinking about this book.' GLENNON DOYLE

Tarana Burke 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, her soul split in two. One side was the bright, intellectually curious Bronxite steeped in Black literature and power, and the other was the bad, shame-ridden girl. 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 soul, through organising, pursuing justice and finding community. Here she shares her extensive work supporting and amplifying the power of Black and brown girls, and the devastating realisation 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.

Unbound is the story of an inimitable woman's inner strength and perseverance, all in pursuit of bringing healing to her community and the world around her. And, at its essence, it is also a story about all of us - our possibility, our empathy, our power - and about the leader we each have inside.
