'The Misrepresentation of Black Women': Author Exposes Tips to Help Single Black Women Avoid Being Negatively Stereotyped by Society

Detra R. McCarty's "The Misrepresentation of Black Women" (published by AuthorHouse - http://www.authorhouse.com) serves to provide single black women the tools they need to achieve success and a positive presence in both social and professional arenas, through self-preservation and spirituality.

     If you want to reinvent yourself, God can do it. He can take a nobody and
     turn them into a somebody. He can take an ugly duckling and turn them
     into a beautiful swan. He can make a sinner a saint. All things are
     possible with God as your guide.

"The Misrepresentation of Black Women" instructs readers on how to bring out their inner beauty, inner strength and inner savvy. It showcases how women can change their outlook on life and how they perceive themselves to alter the way others view them. It is in no way meant to promote superficiality, but rather self-worth, self-esteem and self-assurance.

     I have found that as I grew spiritually, I grew in every other aspect of
     my personal and professional life. My vocabulary changed, my thought
     process changed, how I viewed life and the people I came into contact
     with changed; and most importantly, I viewed myself differently. I
     expected more out of myself and the people I allowed to be in my circle.
     God changed me and there is nothing about the new me that I don't love.
     So, I have a new found freedom, joy, happiness and outlook on life.
