ABOUT THE ANTHOLOGY
“Our Stories Belong in History” is a groundbreaking anthology that brings together the voices of three generations of Black and Latina U.S. women executive leaders to share their empowering untold stories of overcoming insurmountable odds to achieve and sustain success.
For far too long, the narratives about our communities have centered on the hardships we've endured. “Our Stories Belong in History” takes back our voice to speak our truth — of the beauty we've nurtured, the wisdom we've gained, and the boundless potential we've cultivated through it all.
The book offers readers an intimate and inspiring portrayal of both the challenges and triumphs of women leaders of color in corporate environments, including proven leadership and entrepreneurship strategies that can serve as a vital resource for every woman aged 18 or older. From navigating the vicious cycle of work burnout to finding balance, liberation, fulfillment and true purpose, these stories resonate deeply with women from all walks of life–underscoring the boundless potential of women to be change agents, community pillars, and firsts.
Every woman deserves to hear these stories, share these stories, and feel these stories, because its time we tell our own.
