Brown Shugas' by Reneé Drummond-Brown is written about us women of colour who the author refers to in the book as sisters, sistahs, and Sustahs.

To earn the prestigious title Sustah, the woman of colour has endured some thAngs in her lifetime (and then sum) that no one else can withstand and she also shares a code of honor with other Sustahs that surpasses all understanding. For example, a Sustah is conditioned from a little girl to always smile through it all and never cry no matter what the situation whether emotional, psychological, and/or physical because one thing for sure and two for certain she knows that she knows when she is at her lowest and her weakest hour, she is Army strong.

This poetry book addresses our ill-willed plights, our heartfelt struggles, and our need to be seen and heard; cause a Sustah ain't hardly afraid to say it loud She be black and she be Negroid proud!

Some mistake Sustahs for being evil, which is furthest from the truth; truth be told we're shuga and spice and all the thAngs nice, but don't get it twisted we can get loud when backed into a corner and have no problem rolling our eyes, snapping our necks back, strutting our donkey donks hard and carrying a big stick! And we ain't afraid to use it!

This book illustrates the good, the bad and our ugly side that must be shown when coming up against the enemy, which leaves us no choice but to stand our ground! When it comes to a bonafide Sustah...

Don't start no mess--won't be no mess!
