Bøger af Cheryl Hunter

As eighteen-year-old Cheryl Hunter escapes rural Colorado for the bright lights of Europe, she does so with nothing more than an over-packed suitcase and a dream. Once there, her mind is bent on solving one problem alone: how does a small-town cowgirl pull off the feat of becoming an international supermodel? When Cheryl is abducted, raped and brutally beaten instead, she is faced with solving a much bigger problem: how does she survive? Using her journey of rising from the ashes as fuel, Hunter delivers a step-by-step method that can be applied by anyone who has ever dealt with less-than-favorable circumstances. In a world where-let's face it-life often hijacks our personal agendas, Cheryl shows you how to immediately take back the reins, design a life you love, and become the unstoppable force of nature you were born to be.

White privilege is a part of the problem in America's racial divide. The naive or ignorant person out of touch with the reality of the every day fear and struggle for persons of color prolongs true equality. As a 60 year old white woman, Cheryl Hunter tells a tale of her own journey from ignorance to awareness and how she continues to dismantle her own ingrained stigma that centuries of colonialism and subjugation have left as a white legacy. Her southern California hometown of Yucaipa has been the center of racism on many occasions. And though it is still a place that the author cherishes, she feels a sense of obligation to speak out and start a conversation of truth. This book may start a firestorm for her, but she is ready to take that on.
