Authors: Yomi Adegoke & Elizabeth Uviebinené
Every black girl or person interested in learning more and getting to understand the experiences of black girls and women in the UK should be reading this book. To bring it to fruition, Yomi and Elizabeth have started in depth and meaningful conversations with some of the most distinguished and successful black women in the UK – from filmmaker extraordinaire Amma Asante to radio presenter Clara Amfo and journalist Charlene White.
Slay In Your Lane digs deep into what it is like growing up as a black girl in the UK, and the challenges, discrimination and marginalization they can face. It is a wonderful and honest collection of life experiences and a hopeful portrayal of what they can achieve when they face those challenges head on and come out the other end victorious. Slay In Your Lane is not just a book filled with the experiences of powerful and industry-leading black women in the UK. It is also a bible filled with thoughtful and useful advice.
Yomi and Elizabeth and all the women involved have really done something selfless in creating this inspiring book for young black girls coming into their womanhood!
