BEST SELLING AUTHOR & AWARD WINNING JOURNALIST, JONETTA ROSE BARRAS

“Whatever Happened To Daddy's Little Girl" Publisher: One World/Ballantine ISBN: 0-345-43483-8 Available in Hardback, Paperback & E-Book “Bridges: Reuniting Daughters & Daddies" Publisher: Bancroft Press ISBN: 1-890862-38-X Available in Hardback, Paperback "Bridges" is as much about hurdling the internal obstacles that have kept us away from the place where self-love lives, as it is about bridging the seemingly unbridgeable gap between estranged daughters and fathers. It is as much about soul development as it is about reconciliation between a parent and a child, once believed to have been lost.” Last of the Black Emperors" Publisher: Bancroft Press ISBN: 0-9631246-6-8 Availble in Hardback, Paperback The Last of the Black Emperors, author Jonetta Rose Barras explains the many paradoxes of Marion Barry's career, and documents the growth of his racial and political identities parallel with those of his largely black constituency. Barras places the D.C. mayor in context, comparing him with politicians-black and non-black-of his generation, and with "the new black leaders" who have rendered his style obsolete. Focusing on the period from Barry's 1992 prison release, through his 1994 mayoral victory, and the subsequent erosion of his influence in the nation's capital, Barras's study traces the uneven trajectory of a wily, controversial, but captivating personality. Barras also offers glimpses of young Barry--his childhood in the south under Jim Crow, his early political life in the civil rights movement and SNCC, and his forsaking activism for the pursuit of elected office. The Last of the Black Emperors shows us Barry as an embodiment of Anansi the Spider, a "trickster" figure from African folklore who is both victim and victor, and resounds in the psyche of black America to this day.
