A searing and fearless anthology of essays exploring the profound
impact of money on women's lives, edited by prominent feminist and
writer Rebecca Walker. Women Talk Money is a groundbreaking
collection that lifts the veil on what women talk about when they
talk about money; it unflinchingly recounts the power of money to
impact health, define relationships, and shape identity. The
collection includes previously unpublished essays by trailblazing
writers, activists, and models, such as Alice Walker, Tressie
McMillan Cottom, Rachel Cargle, Tracy McMillan, Cameron Russell,
Sonya Renee Taylor, Adrienne Maree Brown, and more, with Rebecca
Walker as editor. In this provocative anthology, we discover a
family that worships money even as it tears them apart; we read
about the "financial death sentence" a transgender woman must
confront to live as herself. We trace the journey of a Silicon
Valley entrepreneur who finally makes enough money to discover her
spiritual impoverishment; we follow a stressful email exchange
between an unsympathetic university financial officer and a
desperate family who can't afford to pay their daughter's tuition,
and more. This collection is a clarion call to conduct honest
conversations that demystify and transform the role money plays in
our lives. Dazzlingly resonant and deeply familiar, Women Talk
Money is a revelation.
