Why Am I the Only Black Girl in the Shaman Room? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781530692897)

What do you do when you're the only black girl in the Shaman room? How can a course on spirituality not include any mention of Africa? And who do you talk to when the people in your community reject spirituality because of conflicts with Christianity? This book is about a black girl's yearning to find herself in mainstream spirituality only to find that there is no room. The story of black girl who is caught between a rock and a hard place of cultural appropriation and general oppositions to spirituality by her own people. It is an honest and deeply personal story told in an Afrocentric context about searching for what you know to be true and believing that you can find yourself, if you look in the right places. Tonesha K. Sylla's debut book proves that she will be a force to be reckoned with in the spiritual world, if based on nothing else but her sheer determination to unite her people spiritually and spread the truth through her own spiritual journey. "Why am I the only black girl in the Shaman room?" should be required reading for anyone looking for a fresh black perspective on spirituality. This read goes beyond the safe New Age books and challenges the black woman to discover spirituality without restrictions. About the Author: Tonesha K. Sylla is just a normal chic with a few paranormal gifts! She is a natural born empath, innately spiritual, and a complete and utter extroverted introvert. A Southern Belle hiding out in DC: you could accurately describe her as an Afrocentric Bohemian. Tonesha offers spiritual guidance, Akashic Records readings, and Intuition Development.
