Magazine ___________ It's about time we made motherhood more
diverse... When Candice fell pregnant and stepped into the
motherhood playing field, she found her experience bore little
resemblance to the glossy magazine photos of women in horizontal
stripe tops and the pinned discussions on mumsnet about what
pushchair to buy. Leafing through the piles of prenatal
paraphernalia, she found herself wondering: "Where are all the
black mothers?". Candice started blogging about motherhood in 2016
after making the simple but powerful observation that the way
motherhood is portrayed in the British media is wholly
unrepresentative of our society at large. The result is this
thought-provoking, urgent and inspirational guide to life as a
black mother. It explores the various stages in between pregnancy
and waving your child off at the gates of primary school, while
facing hurdles such as white privilege, racial micro-aggression and
unconscious bias at every point. Candice does so with her trademark
sense of humour and refreshing straight-talking, and the result is
a call-to-arms that will allow mums like her to take control,
scrapping the parenting rulebook to mother their own way.
