Aside from the neat 'novelish' writing, written in a 1st person style unlike any memoir or biography I've ever read before, the parts of Afeni's story that stood out were her personal 'insightful' truths. Really liked the fact that she was a reader. It showed in how she internalized her journey... taking responsibility for her faults... acknowledging how "we dropped the ball..." and actually trying to clarify in the small platform she had to work with, what duty and honor meant to her. This book really is good (and engaging) as it is, and perhaps is enough, though at times I found myself wanting to read Afeni telling her story... full-on-out herself.

Oh my GOODNESS!! I have to say that this was one of the best books that I have ever read. From the first page until the end. Jasmine Guy - first of all - her realness was exactly what I have looked for in every book. She made me love her. From the dedication, to her thoughts on forewords (I'm with you Jasmine, I hate them too) until the very end. I could not put it down. Afeni Shakur was a remarkable woman. She was raw and unfiltered and I love it. Her strength in character was insurmountable. I never knew that Afeni and Jasmine were friends. I actually did not know much about Afeni either so, I completely appreciated listening in on the conversations that they had. All love. It was like listening in on your mother and aunt's conversations as a kid (knowing you shouldn't) and just enjoying the interactions, and later as an adult, relishing in the memories. I was sad when the end of the book came but, happy at the same time. Highly recommended.

i absolutely adored this book. I got it within two days of shipping & read the whole thing within 4 days. You really can catch a feel of Afeni Shakur one of the most strong willed revolutionariest woman of our time. She is also known for being the mother of Tupac Amaru Shakur, someone who changed this world with his words of wisdom & intelligence. This book about Afeni gives you a great insight on her life & injustices Black Americans faced during the past. Afeni was a strong beautiful woman & this book is lifechanging. it also really gives you a great insight on why Tupac was the great person he was! Good read, recommend to everyone! Rest in Peace Afeni & Tupac!

That is, if you were an eighties baby who crushed on Tupac when you were young enough to think everything he said was gold... you need this book in your life. Here's a tough truth for a fan: everything revolutionary that Tupac said was born of Afeni's political struggle(s). And if you've ever dated anybody who was way too young for you, then you may be familiar with the feeling I had one day while dancing with a young person to music from their (this is not a grammar error-- I'm trying to recognize the gender spectrum) parents' generation. This moment was after a series of dumb and disrespectful errors that young people make when they haven't outgrown their allergies to accountability. By the time we danced to Earth, Wind, and Fire, I'd forgiven so much that I thought myself the St. Theresa of cougars. Still, there was something about hearing adults sing about adult relationships that made me think, "I wish I'd met your parent first."I take that detour down memory lane to describe my current relationship with the memory of Tupac. I'm 36 now; I was only 14 when his life was cut short, even younger when the things he said (especially at the Indiana Black Expo) made perfect sense (I know this is a review of Afeni's book and I'm getting there. Promise!). Now that I've lived well beyond the age he reached on this plane, I see how young he actually was. I see how he struggled with and against his own youth to plant seeds in concrete. I finally see that everything green, everything he said that was a celebration of life in spite of, was planted by Afeni. It was Afeni I was drawn to all along. Just watch his high school interview (available on YouTube) to see what I'm talking about.Before I fell down a Tupac research rabbit hole, my fandom was limited to memorization of his radio hits, "Dear Mama" being the most popular. His description of a woman who was both black queen and crack fiend was all I knew of Afeni, but that's only because I was too young to realize that when you hear a young person speak, you are always already listening to the ones who raised them.Afeni is the woman who raised Tupac in a community of Black Panthers, against a backdrop of anti-poor public policies and the burgeoning of mass incarceration. I am so grateful that Jasmin Guy decided to ask Afeni about the path that led her to the truncated story told in "Dear Mama." Ms. Afeni's life narrative is a gift to all who want to understand how the political becomes personal even before an artist's personal life is publicly politicized. This is a book for students of Tupac, students of the Black Panther Party, and students of Black women raising children everywhere-- making the impossible possible and pushing against the system's plan for our demise.

Jasmine does an excellent job of making the reader feel like they are sitting in her almost empty brownstone with them, listening in on the conversation. Afeni does not hold back. She talks about some hard subjects, but she has learned a lesson from each one & is sharing her lessons, wisdom, perspectives w/the reader. The book covers parts of her life before the Panthers, during, and her addiction to recovery afterwards. I'm glad Afeni was able to get clean & love herself and her life, even through tragedy.

We are members of a womens empowerment group, who chose this book two weeks before trhe death of Afeni Shakur; which gave tyhe reading more purpose.During our discussion me noticed our generational differences with some sharing personal experiences with those not of Afeni's time was of extreme value.We continued talking on her strengths and weaknesses onward for hours to our own struggles today. I personally found an interest in Tupac's poetry and lyrics; as I'd never listened to his music before. I'm now a fan!

Though I am a HUGH Tupac fan, Jasmine Guy did a beautiful job of sharing Afeni's story without much mention of her son. This was HER story and it made me love her even more for her love of not only her children and family but for black people as well. Her strength and her will for survival is very Inspiring. She did not hold back or sugar coat her truths, which is rare when Autobiographies of others tend to hide or downplay the ugly stuff. Her life was rough and at times especially her sons life mirrored hers as if he picked up where she left off. Great read and Insite into a women whose revolutionary status was well earned but at a price.
