Description of Nappy: Growing Up Black and Female in America
As an eloquent rendering of the experiences of black women coming of age in America, Gibson’s memoirs strike to the heart of a generation in transition and resonate with its wit and its troubles. Using her personal experiences, Gibson examines how American standards of beauty affect women of color and their struggles for self-acceptance.
