This book has won the 2014 Qualitative Book AwardSweetwater: Black Women and Narratives of Resilience is a multigenerational story of growing up black and female in the rural South. This book captures the artistry, strength, hope, sound, language, and creativity shared by firsthand accounts of black women in a familial village community in North Carolina. Sweetwater is about the black female experience as it relates to friendship, family, spirituality, poverty, education, addiction, mental illness, romantic relationships, raising children, and everyday survival. Written from field notes and memory, the author combines narrative and autoethnography to weave her own experiences as a rural black girl into the story, revealing the complexities of black womens lived experiences and exposing the communicative and interpersonal choices black women make through storytelling. Narrative inquiry and black feminism are offered as creative educational tools for discussing how and why black womens singular interior lives are culturally and globally significant.

I really enjoyed reading 'Women and Narratives of Resilience'. The way it combines black studies with critical thinking is refreshing. It's a powerful book that really gets you thinking about the strength of women in our communities.

Needed more practical examples
While I appreciate the themes covered in this book, I was hoping for more practical examples of resilience. The stories are inspiring but could use a bit more action-oriented guidance. Not bad, but not exactly what I expected.
