Now in paperback comes the eagerly anticipated follow-up to her raw and riveting 1999 masterpiece, The Coldest Winter Ever
Sister Souljah returns to her beloved character Midnight with A MOMENT OF SILENCE: MIDNIGHT III.
Sharp-tongued Porsche worships her sister Winter. Cut from the same cloth as her father, Porsche is also passionate, loyal and a natural-born hustler. She refuses to accept her new life in group homes, foster care and juvenile detention after her family is torn apart. Porsche - quick-witted, young and beautiful - cries as much as she fights and uses whatever she has to reclaim her status. Determined, she pushes to get back everything that ever belonged to her wealthy, loving family.
Now available in a trade paperback edition, Sister Souljah's debut novel about the daughter of a drug lord captures the allure and the danger of Brooklyn's streets.
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author, rapper, and activist—Sister Souljah uses her passionate voice to deliver what is at once a fiercely candid autobiography and a survival manual for any Black woman determined to keep her heart open and her integrity intact in modern America.Each chapter of No Disrespect is devoted to someone who made a difference in Sister Souljah’s life—from the mother who raised her to the men who educated (and mis-educated) her about love—and each bares a controversial truth about the Black condition in America: the disintegration of families; the unremitting combat between the sexes; and the thousand and one ways in which racism continues to circumscribe how Black people see themselves and treat one another.The result is an outspoken and often courageous rejoinder to the pieties of race, class, and gender by a writer who is at once wise, bawdy, brutally funny, and as sensitive a lightning rod in a thunderstorm.
