The Sexual Lives of Black Women, In Their Own Words In a culture driven by sexual and racial imagery, very few honest conversations about race, gender, and sexuality actually take place. In their absence, commonly held perceptions of black women as teenage mothers, welfare recipients, mammies, or exotic sexual playthings remain unchanged. For fear that telling their stories will fulfill society's implicit expectations about their sexuality, most black women have retreated into silence. Tricia Rose seeks to break this silence and jump-start a dialogue by presenting, for the first time, the sexual testimonies of black women. Spanning a broad range of ages, levels of education, and socioeconomic backgrounds, twenty women, in their own words, talk with startling honesty about sex, love, family, relationships, and intimacy. Their stories dispel prevailing myths and provide revealing insights into how black women navigate the complex terrain of sexuality. Nuanced, rich, and powerful, Longing to Tell will be required reading for anyone interested in issues of race and gender.

Writing this has been my desire since my early twenties. Feeling a desire to tell my mother's story was overwhelming me. She has suffered so much and received so little. Why? This book is based on true life events of Helen Mintz Canady and her children. If we, as a society, continue to ignore abuse, then we are continuing to say that abuse is okay in our society. I hope that some readers are set free and will find the courage to resist abuse. Ignoring abuse and believing the lies inflicted on some people can destroy their feelings of self-worth and create deep-rooted scares that may never heal. Living the events in this book helped shape the person I am today. Surviving some of the events in this book are nothing short of a miracle.
