In the tradition of the bestselling Ophelia Speaks, a collection of provocative essays by teenage girls of color

My Sisters' Voices is a passionate and poignant collection of writings from teenage girls of African American, Hispanic, Asian American, Native American, and biracial backgrounds. With candor and grace, they speak out on topics that are relevant not only to themselves and their peers but to anyone who is raising, teaching, or nurturing young women of color.

As adolescents, women, and minorities, these young authors represent a demographic that has had no voice of its own, a group often spoken for but rarely given the opportunity to be heard. Now these young women have a chance to stand up and be counted, to present their own unique perspectives in fresh and astonishing ways. Here you'll find a Native American girl writing about the bumps in her relationship with her best friend, who's white; a Korean American girl who wishes she could help her mother understand that it's okay to socialize with boys as well as girls; and a biracial girl who feels she must be the designated spokesperson for blacks when she's around whites, for whites when she's around blacks, and for biracial people around everyone. These personal and inspiring stories about family, friendship, sex, love, poverty, loss, and oppression make My Sisters' Voices essential reading for young women of all backgrounds.

Comfy soft pillow covers
Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30"), Color: 02 - White, Size: Queen (20" X 30")
Absolutely love these pillow cases! I bought 2 sets. After I received them & washed & dried them they did remain wrinkly. I just went ahead and put them on my pillows & the wrinkles went away. I continue to love the feel, coolness & comfort. Will definitely buy more.

So soft and amazing quality
Color: 12 - Light Beige, Size: Twin
I can't tell you if they're cooling or not yet. The weather took a turn for the cold so I haven't put them on the bed yet. But the quality..omg it's exceptional! These are insanely soft! Not slippery like satin but not scratchy like percale. They're like the best of both worlds..light as satin but nicely weighty like percale. I don't know what kind of sorcery this is but these are literally better than those 6-zillion count Egyptian cotton sheets that cost more than the GDP of a small nation. These are exceptional!! Soft as butter but still feel like they'll last a while and not let you fall out of bed like silk lol. When you fold them, they snap nicely. They seem to have a lived in look..like they'll never be utterly wrinkle-free but who cares..they're smooth, soft and supposed to be cooling. I never thought I'd find anything more comfortable than cotton sheets but these are even better. The colors are ok. Pretty basic but they are true to life..some others look different online than when you get them..not these colors online are accurate. This was a great deal and I'd recommend a thousand times over!

The softest sheets ever! 💙
Color: 05 - Dusty Blue, Size: Queen, Color: 05 - Dusty Blue, Size: Queen
This sheets quality feels great! It feels a little heavy but comfortable. I love the way it just drops. It feels cool to the touch, and so so gently on my skin! I previous had gotten a 100% cotton sheets from this same brand and it feels soooo rough on my skin, but this one is great! Best money spent! Bamboo material! I'm never going back! I got the dusty blue, in the photo is looks gray because of light but I love the blue color, it looks great!
