Silent No More Tanya DeFreitas

The darkness in her eye represents her past. The light in her eye represents her future. The tear on her face represents the pain she endured. The story represents her freedom and healing. Silent No More is an anthology about childhood trauma. The authors are women who experienced horrific abuse and mistreatment when they should have been protected & cherished. They were violated, as minors. They were threatened to keep it secret and forced to keep quiet. Featuring Anjanette Robinson, Brandi Marsh, Carra Dixon, Danniel S. Withers, Jaynel Jones, LaLisa Morgan, Lucretia Y. Hayes, Melanie Rossum, Melissa McGill, Porsche Williams, Tanya DeFreitas, Vernita Edwards, and Lead Author Venus Chandler, with a bonus entry by Terry Chandler. As adults, these women are reclaiming their liberty and victory by telling their story, their truth. It's not an easy read, but it was not an easy journey to get to the place of being able to share what they experienced. Together, they are breaking the silence and they are Silent No More!
