Letters to Young Black Women .org - Daniel Whyte III, with Meriqua & Daniella Whyte

I have read your book entitled "Letters to Young Black Men" and "Letters to Young Black Women". I enjoyed them both tremendously. I could really relate to "Letters to Young Black Women" because I am a young black woman, attending Florida A&M University in a MBA Program on a full scholarship and reaching graduation shortly at the age of 19. I agree with your opinion on women being knowledgeable and sharing that knowledge with others. I feel that education is extremely important and even at a young age I am trying to develop creative ways to share that knowledge with my fellow young black sisters. Your book hits on so many good points, I wish I had the time to discuss them all, but time is of the essence. I pray that your ministry will continue to flourish and grow because your words of wisdom to young ladies are vital. I grew up with biblical teaching from many women, but to hear a man's point of view showed me a different light of things. The chapter “Beware of the Dogs" is AWESOME! You are so right about the different breeds of dogs out there. That chapter really took my blinders off to see these dogs for the dogs they are. Your book helped me to re-think a few areas in my 5 and 10 year plans. I just wanted you to know that your male perspective was a great help to me and may have kept me from destruction. God really works in mysterious ways and I'm glad to be His daughter. Just to let you know, your book is a key tool in my mom and I generation to generation ministry. We travel around dancing and talking to young and old women about their spiritual beauty. Your book is so on time.

Next to the Bible, Letters to Young Black Women is a must read for young women.

I picked up a copy of the book as stocking stuffers for the young women in my life, and I found it to be most enjoyable even at my age! I loved the book recommendations at the end of each chapter, most of which I have read. Kudos to Mr. Whyte!

I recently purchased Letters to Young Black Women and have to say I was pleased with the content. I plan on buying a few more copies to give to the young black females I teach. I have also read Letters to Young Black Men and purchased a few copies for the young black males I teach.
As a young, educated, single, African-American woman raising a young girl, I am constantly searching for guidance. I, myself, struggled as a young girl; born to two mentally ill parents; raised in a variety of foster homes, to avoid the many pitfalls that young women are faced with today. It was only through constant prayer; protection from the Lord, education and research that I was able to overcome a variety of challenges.
I believe that this will be a great book for me to share with my daughter and nieces. It is sad to say but books like yours are all I have to offer my child from a father's point of view. It is a wonderful start and hopefully I will be able to break the chain and cultivate a group of young ladies who have the know how and strength to operate from a position of strength and power.
Thanks again for writing such a wonderful book that I believe has the power to help many young women simply based on the fact that your thoughts are so resounding that they almost walk across the page and whisper into the reader’s ears.

I want to say that your two books "Letters To Young Black Women", and "Letters To Young Black Men", that I have read was inspiration to me. I have just started reading a lot of Christian books and your books caught my eyes when I was in the grocery store shopping and saw the book "Letters To Young Black Women" on the stand and I brought it and started reading the book and found myself in that book. After finish reading the book I notice that you had one out for the young black men and I got that and finished reading it as well and you have given me so tips on black men. I thought that since I am a single parent raisin two teenage men that they need to read the book on "Letters to Young Black Men". Once they have finished reading the book I will be asking them some question on how they interrupted the reading of the book. I thank God for your inspiration on writing these books. God Bless You and Your Family who took the time out to help you write it and given you some pointers on writing the "Letters to Young Black Women". GOD BLESS.
