Autorenporträt

Brenda Starr is a retired R.N. and retired U.S.A.F. veteran . She is an American Descendant of Slaves. Raised a Jehovah's Witness, she never attended church, never celebrated holidays, did not pledge allegiance to the flag, or vote. She is a product of public housing, redlining, segregation, discrimination, and sub-standard education. She admits to social amnesia regarding American Descendant of Slave (ADOS) issues until the murder of George Floyd by Derek Chauvin, She realized that if she had social amnesia, then many others in her community have it too, Pressed but Not Crushed addresses many of the social and political issues confronting ADOS. She has jumped into the fray with other racial equality activists to help promote equal justice, housing, education, social resources and opportunity for American Descendants of Slaves. She also wants those who suffer from social amnesia to become aware and educated regarding political and social issues as they affect American Descendants of Slaves.
