A Black Girl's Cry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798393891404)

A Black Girl's Cry, author Danyelle Scroggins, intimately explores the real-life struggles Black girls face-racism, failed relationships, corporate tension, broken friendships, and deep emotional pain.

But amid these challenges, Scroggins poses a powerful and unexpected question: What happens when a Black mother chooses to teach her daughters more about Christ than about the struggle of being Black in America?

As a young mother who understood firsthand what it meant to be African American, she made a bold decision-to raise her daughters in faith before fear. For her, knowing Christ was more powerful than knowing culture. Because while Blackness would shape their identity, it would be their faith in Jesus that shaped their destiny.

This deeply moving, partially memoir-style narrative walks readers through two kinds of crying: the kind rooted in hopelessness, and the kind that knows victory is already won in Christ. Scroggins reminds us that when you know Jesus, you know that even your tears have purpose-that all things work together for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28).

With transparency and truth, Scroggins shares how raising two Black daughters led her to prioritize spiritual identity over societal labels. She recognized that while her girls would always know what it feels like to be Black in America, it was even more essential that they knew what it meant to be victorious in Christ. Because faith doesn't erase the pain, but it gives the pain purpose.
