Remember Me Now

A Journey Back to Myself and a Love Letter to Black Women

De: Faitth Brooks

Narrado por: Faitth Brooks

An unforgettable invitation to treat our lives as the sacred things they are—and a call to embrace the love, dreams, and healing that only we can choose for ourselves.

“A must-read for all Black women . . . Remember Me Now is more than words on paper. It’s a journey back to ourselves.”—Toni Collier, speaker, podcast host, and author of Brave Enough to Be Broken

When Breonna Taylor was killed, her police report was virtually blank. Feeling as if she was suffocating in the initial silence and lack of public outcry, anti-racism educator and activist Faitth Brooks wondered, “Would the world care about and remember me if I was killed?”

In Remember Me Now, Faitth grapples with the answer, charting the story of her activist grandparents and ancestors, as well as chronicling her own journey as the first-generation suburbs kid who becomes an activist and organizer herself. Part manifesto, part love letter to Black women, Remember Me Now shows us how we learn to celebrate the fullness of ourselves—a holy, defiant, and necessary move in a world determined to silence us.

Filled with transporting stories, poems, and letters to sisters of all walks of life, Remember Me Now is a transformational read that calls Black women to be their own activists. It's a reminder to all that Black women matter, and our lives, voices, and stories are worth everything.

Journey of rediscovery

I enjoyed this book! Having the author narrate adds to the depth of the words. I could feel her joy, her pain, her highs and lows. I also felt like I was on a journey to rediscovering myself. What a blessing and a gift this is to all of my sistahs♥️

Relatable and Truly Gifted Narrator

This narrator has a gift of articulating her feelings in a way that makes the reader feel connected to her in a sincere way. I could relate to her many ways. She clearly explained how she processed her life, moments of enlightenment, and enriching lessons learned that are both helpful and applicable to most anybody; while simultaneously speaking/catering specifically to a marginalized demographic of people. Great work. What’s next?

The name itself showed self love.

This book was truly a conversation with myself. The relatability was uncanny. I absolutely loved this book. And will definitely pay it forward! Great Truth!
