Crushing Soft Rubies - A Memoir
Price:
$11.00
Janet
Stickmon’s Crushing Soft Rubies is a place where spirit,
culture and survival meet. It
is the story of a Filipino-African-American who is caught
between the death of her parents and the desperate need to
define herself -- not as an orphan but as a strong woman who is
willing to do whatever is necessary to ensure that her past does
not become a barrier to her future.
Janet, now a teacher and a married woman, leads us
through the immense details of her story.
From her childhood home being burned to the ground, to
the joys and conflicts with her Filipino family, to seeking a
connection with her African-American heritage, and then to the
beautiful moment of her marriage.
Janet navigates the waters of love, spirit, identity, and
survival, maintaining a life filled with faith and wonder.
