Ethereal describes the very essence of a Black woman. For centuries Her worth, intelligence, and beauty have been measured by everyone except her. This doesn’t mean she is not enough or is undeserving of help or praise. Instead, it proves that she has always been too perfect for this world—Ethereal. In this uniquely crafted collection of quotes, Black women from across the country lend their voices to encourage and build the confidence of other Black girls and women.

They can heed the advice of others or use it to create their own life path. Who better to help Black girls thrive in a world they weren’t meant to survive in than Black women anyway? Ethereal reminds readers that only the Black woman defines the terms by which she lives.
