The purpose of this book, Together We Stand Stronger, is to dialog what it looks like when a group of people, like Black Americans, love themselves. The Biblically-based theme of the value of loving ourselves, rather than destroying ourselves, isrepeated throughout this book. Why? Because for Blacks, possibly more than any other race of people, loving ourselves is not only an overcoming-restorative-necessity, but also an urgent call to action, if we are to survive and thrive as a united community and race of people fulfilling God’s call to impact America and the world at large.
