Muted by Tami Charles

Muted by Tami Charles is a ripped-from-the-headlines novel of ambition, music, and innocence lost. When Denver sings her way into stardom, the painful sacrifices and lies she has to tell are all worth it... until they’re not. Denver begins to realize that she’s trapped in this world, struggling to hold on to her own voice. As the dream turns into a nightmare, she must make a choice: lose her big break, or get broken. Start reading!

The Life I’m In by Sharon G. Flake

Embracing the Unstoppable You✊🏽✊🏻✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿

I am a woman. I am smart. I have opinions. I have feelings. I care. I make a difference. I matter. ♀️💪

Nothing will stop you from creating the life that you want it to be...

Unstoppable will challenge you to bring your dreams to reality in the face of fear, rejection, heartache, depression, and doubt. Don’t worry about negative comments and trolls they won't stop you from achieving your dream. Remember there's an unstoppable force inside of you. Bring it out and feel so much confidence and power within you. ♀️💪

Women's rights and equality are important issues that need to be addressed and it's inspiring to see someone taking an active role in fighting for them. ♀️💪

Don’t forward hate, spread Love: https://bit.ly/3TIEPCH

We’re stronger when we work together! 💪♀️

Women's rights are human rights. We are humans too, so women and girls are entitle to receive the same fundamental rights, such as education, a life free of violence, a fair wage, or the vote. We should be free from discrimination, exploitation, and violence. ✊🏽✊🏻✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿

Let’s build a society where women enjoy the same rights as men, and fill thew gap of injustice and inequality. A society gets better for everyone when women’s rights are upheld and taken seriously. Let everyone comes together to support women’s rights so we can be so much stronger.

Protecting women’s rights makes the world a better place: https://bit.ly/3FHPaZj
