Ma. Lady. M'Dear. Mama. How old were you when you learned her real name? How foreign did Rachel, Victoria, Lucille, and Claudia Mae sound on your lips? Poet and soul-felt griot Niama Williams offers a glimpse into the maternal resilience and female essence of our loving legacy. Millennium Women pays loving homage to the traditional old woman that nurtured our tender hearts, and to the osmotic gift of Pulitzer Prize winner Toni Morrison, a gift which epitomizes the indefatiguable endurance of our Black Mothers. From Maryland to Arkansas to Arizona to California, Millennium Women evokes memories and offers a candid kaleidoscope of love. The truth has never been so melodic and real. For generations, our Black Mothers have been a mystery to not only themselves, but to their children. Millennium Women reveals the core simplicity of our mother's immortal secret: you don't know me if you don't know her.
