The collective grief and anger we felt after George Floyd's death was visceral, with his cries still echoing in our shared consciousness, reminding us that we have yet to heal from this trauma witnessed by the world. Lorna J. Hines offers a lifeline in her profound book, Straight Talk From a Wise Woman. This text is not merely a guide but a transformative journey through the complexities of trauma, resilience, and healing. Hines, a seasoned psychotherapist, skillfully weaves her extensive expertise with the raw, lived experiences of Black Americans, making this work essential for anyone navigating the tumultuous waters of emotional and psychological distress.Hines' narrative begins with a sobering acknowledgment of the traumas that define so many of us. The poignant framing of individual pain against the backdrop of historical and systemic oppression serves as a powerful reminder of how intertwined our personal struggles are with collective injustices. Yet, rather than succumbing to despair, Hines' voice emerges as a beacon of hope, urging readers to reclaim their narratives and find empowerment within their experiences. This intersectional approach, one that respects the complexities of race, gender, and class, invites a diverse readership to engage with her work, ensuring that Straight Talk resonates far beyond the Black community.As readers turn the pages of Straight Talk, they will undoubtedly find themselves transformed. Hines provides not just a roadmap for personal growth but a profound understanding of the interconnectedness of our traumas and triumphs. Her work encourages a radical reimagining of self-worth, reminding us that, despite our struggles, we are deserving of lives filled with satisfaction and success. Applause for this labor of love from Loran J. Hines.
This book is an invitation to embrace our legacies while shedding the burdens that no longer serve us.

"Poignant and profound, this refreshing and restorative reflection comes to us at such a time as this - for we are thirsty for this healing and the Hochma (wisdom) in which it is wrapped. Let the healing begin."
