Introduction: An ode to Black women -- Ride or die -- The corners -- That thing you do -- 4:44 -- WAP -- My sister's keeper -- A healing.
"Cultural criticism and pop culture history intertwine to dissect how hip hop has sidelined Black women's identity and emotional well-being"-- A "ride-or-die chick" is a woman who holds down her family and her community. She does anything for her family friends and significant other, even at the cost of her own well-being. Hubbard argues that this way of life has left Black women exhausted, overworked, overlooked, and feeling depleted. She urges readers to expel the myth that your self-worth is connected to how much labor your provide others, and guides you toward healing. -- adapted from jacket
